    Pink and Gray

    Pink and Gray seem to be a popular combination this year.

    It seems a bit 'weird' to me, though.

    In the late 1950's - back when the dinosaurs still walked the earth - that's what the high school guys were wearing - in Minnesota in a tiny rural town!

    just a softer version of classic red and black. The combo is attractive to me. I think of my grandfather's birds.

    Interesting - I hadn't really thought of pink and gray in that way -

    I personally love pink & gray & made a Dresden Plate quilt for my DH's boss's baby back in the 80's from that combo (wow... I'm OLD!). I also remember back in the 60's that my aunt's house had pink & gray marble in her master bathroom (oh, I thought it was so elegant!)... the house had probably be built in the late 50's.

    LOL, lots of baby nurseries in this color combo this year. Im actually waiting on some Pink/Grey fabrics (should have them tomorrow). Ive been hired to make a baby quilt for July. Im using a zig zag pattern. If I think of it, will post a pic when done. Personally..I love the combo of the two. Also "in" this year is yellow and grey. Also very nice.

    I have a friend that has chosen those colors, and I have a hard time visualizing it!! Would love to see the fabrics you are using..What pattern are you using? I was thinking of a log cabin, but not sure yet..

    I used to have a pink and grey dress and it was very pretty. I think it is a nice combination; pink and brown is nice too and seems to be popular as well.

    Pink and grey were my wedding colors, I still love them. I didn't care much for the pink and brown when they were popular.
