So what are we all going to do with the colors we do not like. I love oranges, yellow and some food fabrics but dislike mauve and peach. Anyone like mauve and peach?

I'm tired of every Christmas fabric line having either aqua or black. I'd love to see a few more lines that are red, green, gold & cream. Traditional colors with modern prints.

Sometimes not finding the right color can be frustrating. I've been in the market for a dark green flannel, but for the last 2 years the flannels have been either too olive, too teal, or too apple/acid green. I'm hoping that fad will pass soon, and the forest and sage greens will come back! |
I don't think I get tired of color combos, just tired of working with the same fabrics for so long on one project. Maybe that's why I seldom finish projects...:confused:

I agree with Peckish, would really like to see some true greens. Greens that aren't yellow-green, lime-green,etc.
|
Oh yea, turquoise and brown. puckerific. Mauve, been out of date for many years. I have wallpaper with mauve and blue flowers that I despise but have yet to paint over. Dull Civil War colors? Not in my stash. Give me purple, green, and yellow any day. The brighter the better....THat said, I do lean toward the darker colors especially for borders or backgrounds....go figure.

I like all colors would be a different world if we were all the same huh?

I don't seem to get tired of any color groups as long as it is a beautiful pattern. True, we seem to use a lot of the same colors at times, but they will all come back in style in a few years!!

I do not like the dull tea-stain colors of what I think is called Civil War quilts. Somehow they just look old and tired. Also I dislike dusty pink and dusty blue combos, to me they are so 30 years ago. I couldn't believe it when a quilt shop I frequent used pink and blue as a color scheme for a block of the month. Give me color give me life! Wow I feel better LOL!
