Experiment, Experiment, Experiment. ;-) Indeed! I can tell you if you dye a fuchsia fabric with a plumb color (purplish blue) you get a great concord grape purple! Anyway.... If a raspberry is the color you want, you'll want to go to the red not to the blue on your already fuchsia and "kill" it a tiny bit. Usually the complimentary color will kill the intensity of a color....in this case a green. A drop or two of greenish grey with that red may do the trick. I suggest even before experimenting, get a color wheel from an art shop so you can better determine where colors come from and how "far away" from your goal you are to start with. Also...have a specific goal. Get a color swatch.... even paint chips from the paint dept are good.... that is the final color you want so you have a firm goal to work towards. **************Psssst...Have you heard the news?
