I would love to see atleast one fabric line that was mainly purple and did not involve pansies.
Purple has been my favorite color for as long as i can remember. I love almost every shade of purple from orchid to dark. I have a lot of trouble finding pretty purples also. However I don't like purples with lots of pansies or flowers either. I don't like purple cars or houses or purple painted rooms but for everything else I love it. I have a fairly nice collection at this time and want to do a couple of purple quilts but haven't found just the right pattern yet that I think will really do that color justice.Does anyone have a great pattern for a beautiful purple quilt?
