    Mine is green. I love quilts with green and blue or blue and purple. However I have a problem picking blues and purple to go into a quilt. The ones that I pick don't go together. I have lots of browns in my stash, and discovered I didn't have any blues, so now when I'm shopping I pick blues. I started this comment saying green, but I think I am stuck on brown.

    I seem to go towards burgundy, but I love all colours.

    Love this , very "artsy" sounding.
    I happen to be working in my "jewel batik series" right now with a little "finish-up-my-loose-ends period" as something to do work on when the batiks drive me batty.
    gosh, makes me feel like I'm a professional fabric artist.

    Mine is Fall colors, I love them so much that I find myself looking for them first and I already have so many of them I need to do something with.

    My colors are purple and blue. Then I saw a quilt with purple and teal, and I really liked that. So, now I have 3 colors. Then a nephew said he liked purple and lime green. It looked surprisingly good.

    When I make a quilt for someone else, I usually have to go out and buy their colors.
