I am about to begin inventory purchases for my new store and I need to know what is your favorite color for quilting, least favorite color, and what is the hardest thing for you to find other than a long arm machine.

Thanks for you help !!! :D

I like blues, and purples. You will get so many different answers on this one. My least favorite is green.

My favorites are greens and purples!!!
Love florals, Orientals and Batiks.
San Dimas Huh? I may have to someday come and check it out!!!

Lots of cream on cream neutrals for backgrounds.

I love clear spring tones. Least favourite is muddy orange.

Hardest thing to find- a good ideas book! (but now I have you guys ;-))

i always have a problem finding a variety of purples, but i think a good variety of basic colors like blue and green are a sure bet for any fabric store :D

If you want to be successful, you will probably want representations of all colors.

Cream on cream is hard to find, as well as lighter colored batiks. I am always looking for these :D:D:D

purples, greens, blues...reds, yellows, rust, just to name a few!! :-) When we go to Pomona to a car show maybe I'll stop by. Send me a PM with address.

I have LOTS of medium and dark fabrics, but I always need to go purchase lights to make a quilt. I suggest you carry light fabrics in many lines, including batiks. A good quality light is getting more difficult to find, I looked yesterday and left Joann's without.
