Hmmmmm.....good question! What I know about myself....I like clear pastel colors, not "muddied", love to use them with white, love the calming effects of blues and greens and whites together for my personal use, can appreciate the time and effort that goes into the really detailed quilts but prefer the traditional quilt patterns, occasionally like a brighter quilt for a bed as in the one I'm making next but, always with a white background...so, what does that make me???????
