Do you ever get stuck on one color scheme?

I'm like quilting girl. Every Kansas Troubles fabric sings to me, and Holly Taylor by Moda with the lodge-y type fabrics is a close second. I only have brights if I'm making something for someone who likes them or for baby quilts. I do have a fair bit of 30's fabrics waiting for me to make a summer quilt, though.

i am a black and white purist:

i don't use any other color on a black and white quilt. i have tubs and tubs of black and white, and rarely have i purchased a duplicate. i usually buy fat quarters or regular quarters unless there is a yardage minimum, which i may or may not take advantage of.
this quilt is my own design.

Green is my thing also. My furniture is green so want quilts to match.
Love black and white but it just wouldnt match.
I need to branch out and make other colors even if I cant use them. Its all in the making isnt it?
Im not a fan of blue and get frustrated with catalogs with all the kits in blues. Seems to be the most popular color.
Loved blue when I was younger but found greens more to my liking as I got older.

Love the looks of this quilt! I like to make my own designs too, so I can appreciate the work that goes in it. Do you draw them out by hand or can you vision the look with your blocks alone? I can draw my blocks with EQ7 instead of putting it on graph paper and then put them into my quilt. I noticed that when I put the colors in I often change them from my original thought. Even when I only do two colors. It always amazes me how placing the colors in another place can change the quilt. Great job!!!
