I would say snappy. I love the brights and the jewel tones, mostly in cool colors. I am severely lacking in earth tones, antique looking and shaded colors.

I totally agree :thumbup: I love batiks :!: They have some of the most beautiful and vibrant colors

RIch fall colors for me, which leads me to wonder why I bought easter egg fabric with sparkles. I must have been hungry.

I mostly buy jewel tones too.

I have everything- it all calls my name! And I listen.

My favorite- I don't know- I love them all. Have some jewel tones, some brights, some 1930s, some Civil War, etc.

I don't have a lot of browns and greens. I have 3 tubs of Christmas fabric and 2 tubs of children's prints. I'm just addicted to fabric. (Although I am adhering to my resolution of not buying fabric and using from my stash).

Snappy! Brights - geometrics - batiks - jewel tones, rich and intense colours.

Hmm, but I also really like earth tones - fall colours and those gorgeous brick/red earthy tones.

Oh, and blue and yellow together.

Lime green just seems to zing up anything.

And the soft warm neutrals make me feel so cozy.

Apparently, almost anything works for me :thumbup:

both! lol I love civil war and any kind of toile. I have a house full of antiques, so tend to gravitate toward traditionals. However, I also have about 30% HAPPY fabrics and pastel/girly
