    Whatever floats my boat that day! I do seem to use greens alot, but I've bought blue, pink and cream combos for years, never really thinking about the fabric in my stash-but it's never appeared in a quilt. One of my favorite quilts ended up being made from clarance fabric I'd have never have bought it iw wasn't on sale-fushia flowers (some very large) and a pale yellow background.

    I love the pink and brown combo, I made a dissappearing nine patch in that color scheme, it was wonderful!

    My favorites are burgundy, navy, hunter green and gold with light to med beige. I also love scrappy with lots of colors and quilts made from jewel tones.

    (1) Orange, with anything.

    (2) Forest/hunter green with rust or dark red.

    (3) I've never used them together but love teal and brown.

    You requested specific colors but I have to add, anything autumn-y. And 30's repros.
