I cannot stand white, I have only ever worked with it once, on a quilt I made for my nephew, and I hated every minute of it, but that was his colour choice.
I have rarely worked an anything that as flowers either, not that I dislike flowers, but they are just not my thing. I prefer bright abstract prints and colours.
Lately, I have been collecting browns, after doing the Fall Table runner swap, they have captured my attention, and I plan to make a table set using browns. Another project to add to the already very long list!
