I love EVERYTHING.... actually, looking at my stash, I must have something of every color know to woman...I just buy whatever I find, on sale, and then later, it always goes with something else. I like to pick the first piece, something with a print and good colors, and then just see what all matches up with it.I am doing one right now, for LINUS PROJECT, that has basketballs (orange, with black and white) and actually, its looking very cheerful. I used the balls, plus orange, plus black, plus white (the orange and black have tiny prints in them) and it works.I guess any color is a good one, if it matches what it is with in the pattern. I love PINK but that doesnt always go with other things, esp if its a boy quilt...... :)
