Using Plain Colours in Textile Designing

Many fabric ranges will include plain colours. In most product ranges there are basics that have to continue, and decisions have to be made as to which colours will be carried on and which will be dropped. Often, these plain colours are related to other products in the same area; for example, towels relate to bathroom fittings, telephones to paints and wall coverings. There should be some co-ordination between plain and patterned ranges. This allows customers to buy from bath and thereby increases sales.
