Most of the quilts I make use 2 - 5 fabric quilts, which seems to be where my niche.
I am not color blind, but I do have major problems combining colors. I am happiest with two or three fabric quilts, or at least two or three colors. For me, I just like them better. I can at least visualize them, sort of, in the design wall in my head.
My very favorites are shades of purple. Like this one.
