Kona Cottons Color Palette
The image to the left are Violet's choices for the quilt made with Robert Kaufman's Kona Cottons. The color swatch with name and number are included.
Errata
In the fabric guide, the white box is missing its stripes. The white box corresponds to the striped areas in the templates.
The symbol for template piece 6H is very small and can be hard to see, but the symbol is the stars so the color should be green.
Early patterns do not include a scale for printing the templates. Here are a few images of templates with a ruler. Please compare your printed templates to the ruler measurements in these images to verify that yours were printed correctly to scale.
In some early patterns, the dark line splitting template piece 56 and 57 is in the wrong place on the instruction book, but the templates are correct. The illustration of piece 57 in the instruction book should have only 3 pieces.
