    A few FQ's of gray and that's it. Tons of yellow, pink, green and blues, but very little gray. Started my orange, purple and turquoise last year and it's going good. Even have aqua now, but the grays are lagging behind. Not my favorite color at all. Can't wear it ever, so I guess I ignore it.

    Grays and yellows are small in my stash, some blacks too. I tend to keep my collections together so could have more of one of those colors that I don't realize. Plus some of my stash is on bolts so again may have more than I realize.

    I used to have tons of blue fabrics but now I have only small pieces for scrap blocks. Also not a lot of pinks and almost no gray tones. I've re-done my stash from keeping all the same colors together to groupings of fabrics that play well together. I figure that way when I see a pattern I would like to try I have a good head start and hopefully will not buy as much.

    I have a pretty good quantity of most colors but almost all are prints. Need solids in all colors. Even though I have a good selection I still find the need to shop for fabric to round out the pattern requirements. LOL

    I keep as little purple as I possibly can, because I do not like purple. I have an abundance of nearly every other color, with a strong emphasis on yellows, oranges, and other autumnal colors.
