Mixing it Buttercup




Mixing ink to create a color match, l decided l'd sew some drawstring cord with some pretty quilting fabric, and l needed to mix up some ink, the above fabric is a sweet buttercup color ,so l started out with white ink in my container first ,and adding basic yellow, this gave a nice lemon color ,but wasn't a match, my buttercup has a warm hue, so l added a small dot of red, this was just enough to alter the lemon shade and gave that warmer buttery color.

Tested it out on a scrap of  fabric. Looks good.
