Product Description
Every crafter—needleworkers, painters, scrapbookers—needs this guide! Color is one of the first things we notice about a garment, necklace, or home accessory—and it can make or break a project. That’s why anyone who has ever struggled to select the perfect blend of hues for a prized piece will immediately recognize its value. Here are thousands of tried-and-true combinations, all based on established tenets of color theory, to choose from. And the volume features the unique ColorSense™ color wheel and cutout templates: just place them over the colors you’re thinking of using to see how they appear in different proportions and against white or black backgrounds. Everyone from artists to home decorators will turn to this again and again.

I Once Was Blind, But Now Can See! July 12, 2008
Two things I like about a book is one that tells you what you already know but looks at it form a different angle; the other thing I like is to be surprised with something that I should have known but did not. This book has both and more.
The first chapter is on how to use the book with 20 action packed, well maybe not action packed but information packed pages on how to get the most out of the book. This is a good starting place.
The book was designed for needlework's and painters and the like. However I have two other reasons I bought the book. First for general knowledge to be able to see the world in a different way "But Now Can See!" The practical purpose is planning colors for dyeing yarn.
The book comes with a color wheel and detachable color samples to carry with you while shopping. I may have to buy a second copy as I can not force my self to dismantle the samples.
The book has a practical binding and is more than worth the cost.
Way to go Susan Levin.
