Which fabric colors do you have plenty? Which colors/shades missing?

Sad but true. I am lacking in white, yellow and orange, brown, purple and black. Hardly any florals. I could however sew from here to eternity with greens, pinks, reds, and blues. Batiks aren't in short supply either.

I have blues, so many blues, from baby to navy. But trending towards navy. Often in themes of sea and sky. After that is a few teals and teal-greens.
I have no dark greens, reds, or browns, as I am utterly color-blind in that range.

I have multiple solid colors and lots and lots of Batiks. I don't really like floral, although I do have some. I am just going to purchase a rack that will hold my material. I have so much and can never find what I want. This will keep me from buying more and more for a while. Christmas is just around the corner. I have to make plenty of gifts.

Fortunately, after over 30 years of buying fabric (good grief!) I have enough fabric of every color in my stash to make many, MANY quilts without having to purchase so much as a fat quarter!!
I also focus on blender prints, value of color, a wide range of white/ecrus/shirting prints on white, and very pale pastels. And I have enough large prints in many themes to create borders, backings, etc. Reckon I'm set!!
I try not to get too wrapped up in fabric shopping these days; there's just no more room or $$$.

Question, what is considered a blender? Is it a mid- tone? I have a lot of random prints from holiday to floral. I have lots of greens, browns and reds. A fair amt. of beige/off white , blue, and Black. Much more prints than solids and lacking yellows/ orange- even though I love bright colors. Much of my stash has been given to me so I work with what I have and build as needed. It helps that I spent hours rolling big pieces on comic book boards and now fill up a bookshelf with main pieces. I also have a lot still in bins and need to start rolling off some scrappies.
