Totally agreed. It's wonderful to have all kinds of different fabrics to go to when you're in the middle of a project.
I ordered some "modern" FQ assortments on Ebay (fabrics not my choosing). When they arrived I was annoyed because they weren't what I considered modern nor were they coordinating (my comfort zone!) But in re-looking at them, there are certainly fabrics that could blend in or perk up a quilt. And it's good to get out of your comfort zone.
