I love grey! I use it with white tones, pure white, looks great with black and pinks and greens and purples and yellow. yea, I like grey. its one of those colors I used to just think meant drab. till I started mixing it in.

A while back I made a black, gray and white quilt (with a pop of red for color). The response of friends was so positive, I started collecting blacks and grays to make more. Currently I have a draw full of Black, Gray, and White (but I haven't made another quilt with these colors - the fabrics are beautiful though and there's always tomorrow. :>).

I do have gray and I am using it with yellow and green right now. I found some fabric from the 50's with grey, green, yellow and white...I love it and am using it as the basis for the colors. It will really be pretty. I am about to start cutting it out this week!

I love greys When I see them I buy as much as I can -greys and bowns are still hard to find around here. Hancocks have a nice selection of both but JoAnns only have a few nasty shades of brown and the only greys are sheer or linings but Jo's will order a bolt if I buy the whole bolt in advance But my fav Wally store is real good about getting colors in that their customers want

Grey is one of my 'looking for' colors when I hit Fabric Depot in July. I have very few real greys--they all appear a little on the bluish side or more black than grey. The few very small pieces I have are being used in house blocks for roofs.
