Color inspirations from nature

Can one leaf provide color inspiration for an entire quilt?

Can a tiny little leaf provide a brilliant color scheme for a quilt? The answer is a resounding yes! The colors in this leaf range from yellows to deep oranges, to rich burgundies, plus a hint of a spring green. I've interpreted those in Autumn Log Cabin, created in 2005.The only color which isn't really represented in the quilt is blue, so the quilt features the entire color wheel except for the color blue (although there the tiniest specks of it in the yellow center squares.)  The fabric for the center squares features the back of the fabric, to provide a softer hue.Your fabric has two sides, so feel free to use the back if it's more appropriate.
