    Amazing quilts! You're starting to crack my yellow wall!

    Thanks for starting this! I love yellow in quilts (and bright colors in general). This is one of the first quilts I made, last fall:

    When I started quilting I soon became aware that a lot of people have an aversion to yellow. I also recall Alex Anderson saying she wasn't really fond of it.

    I can think of worse colors to avoid. ;-)

    Here's a LOT of yellow for you. I think this pic is pre-blocking.

    What a bunch of gorgeous quilts! I love, love, love, yellow.
    I am using it as the background of an applique quilt I'm doing. I probably started it about 3 yrs ago, & at that time I had difficulty finding yellows. All the blocks are done now so I need to applique like crazy!

    I love yellow in quilts but I don't use it much because I'm saving my yellows for a sunflower quilt.
