I am one of those people who doesn't like brown. Oh I have plenty of brown
in my stash, but to make a quilt with it doesn't won't happen for me.
Several years ago on another website I was challenged to make a baby
quilt using brown. I got everything cut out, and 1 row sewn, before the
road block hit me. Tried for 3 years to finish this baby quilt, but just couldn't
do it.
To this day I can't even bring myself to open the little plastic shoe bin
with the project in it.
I do use SOME brown in projects but no more than I have too.
As far back as I can remember brown has always been a color I didn't like.
I also remember as a child that my parents went to visit some friends of
theirs and of course us kids (my brother & I) was with them. I had on a
brown outfit, and Irene (parents friend) as my mom how long have I been
sick. Mom told her that I wasn't sick. She than made the comment that brown
is not a good color for me to wear because it "drained" my complexion to the
point of making me look ill.
Guess that must be about the time I started disliking the color. The ONLY
time I have ever worn brown since than was if it was a uniform (school, or work).
To this day I do NOT own any brown clothing.
I DO like light tan/khaki colors though.
