Just curious what everyone's faves are. I usually am drawn to bright colors with modern prints and retro geometrics. Hot pinks, bright purples, turquoise, lime greens, yellows, etc. How bout you?
|
I am drawn to clear colors, especially purples, blues, green, cool colors and I love Floral Fabrics!!! Especially if the florals look real, like someone took a picture and reporduced that!!!
|
30's repos... Flowers and pastels ! Oh well EVERYTHING ! I love fabric ! LOL :lol:
|
30's repo, holiday prints, primitive looking fabric
|
I'm really "into" the 1800s stuff, the metallics, the batiks, the paisley, uh, hmmm.... I think I like a whoooooooooooooooole bunch of stuff!!
|
I'm drawn to reproduction fabrics, especially 1800s and 1930s.
|
1800s, '30s, dragon fabric, cute bugs, frogs, bright colors, all batiks, oriental, black and whites, browns and whites...i guess you could say I like it all! I'm NOT into plaids though....:-)
|
Cotton..... :lol:
Seriously, I have a bit of everything and I just started this stuff. It depends on who I intend on getting the quilt. |
The right shade and texture of the color I'm looking for.
Mostly smokey blues and sage greens. I'm trying to steer out of my colorphobe state. |
It seems I'm always drawn to the lodge-y fabrics, like Pine Creek Crossing or Timber Creek by Holly Taylor for Moda. And flannels....oh my gosh! I'd guess probably 2/3 of my stash is flannels. They call my name! LOL! I just love snuggling up in a nice soft flannel quilt on my couch in the winter and watching TV with my dh! As for colors...deep reds, blues, golds, creams, sage-y greens, rust. Love it. Now you've done it...I wanna go shopping! I need more cottons! :lol:
|
I love the 1800's repros, soft muted fabrics with a cottage feel and I love red and gold. I think mostly what ever grabs me at the moment too.
|
I just love the fall fabric and christmas. However I've been collecting 30's and I do alot of reproduction for history quilts. I have alot of batiks which my stash has been growing. I just love it all!!!
|
I love brights, certain pastels, florals, purples, pinks, blues, reds
|
I tend to go for the darker burgundy..greens..navy...and fall type of colors. I'm trying to break that habit and venture out of my comfort zone..oh no...now I feel the need to shop :mrgreen: maybe as I finish up the fabshophop..I'm sure I'll see something!
|
civil war, reproductions, robin pandolph, 3 sisters, blackbird designs, christmas moda is my favorite :!: :!: :D :D
|
I like warm colors. All the fall colors. And anything that is a soft blue.
|
I love bright colors, pretty little "sprigs" of flowers, patriotic prints, cat prints, maroons -- oh, heck -- I just love fabric :!: :!:
|
I prefer tiny prints, all colors. I love white on white and white on cream too.
|
Great question. I am attracted to 1930's Reproduction, modern fabrics ala Heather Bailey and Any Butler, and last but not least, Shabby Chic type florals and patterns.
|
I like brights, batiks, leaf prints. Tend to run the other way from plaids. :wink:
|
As they say on the home dec shows on TV -- my taste is eclectic. A little bit of this and a little bit of that. Unfortunately, when I try to pull from my stash, there is always something missing. Usually the medium value. And then of course, that means a trip to the fabric store. Aw, shucks! :lol:
|
My favorites all tend to be a creamy off white background with smaller flowers, I especially like the multi colored flowers, in one print.
|
I love all fabric, but I'm gravitated to batiks. They tend to speak to me the most......buy me, buy me, buy me! :D
P.S. And I do!!! |
Mainly florals, but I need to get out of that habit!
|
Right now I want every thing. My stach is so low I just can't match up to do another quilt top.
|
I am like minstrel I like the lodge and wilderness but then a bright green will call me LOL
I keep thinking about the bright green with red lady bugs on it I saw at Joanns hmmm wish they did internet sales. Amarillo is 90 miles away :cry: |
My favorite color has always been blue. A few years ago I made 3 very large all blue Trips Around the World. Now whenever I walk into a store I head there first. I did not think about it at first. But when I realized it I had to pull myself to the other colors. I do like green and beige so I concentrate on them also.
As far as the prints.........I like things that are not in straight lines. (in case I get sloppy with my cutting). Cute prints like doggies, or things like that. |
I love muted floral.
But what I always look for is green. I have such a hard time finding anything pretty in green. It's like the manufactures come up with pretty patterns and designs for every other color :evil: I love repos - I'm doing a dresden plate in 30's repos and then I'm going to be making a DJ in Civil War repos. |
I also love dark fall colors, (Maybe that has to do something with I was born on the first day of fall ;) )
I love reproduction fabrics, and blues and dark greens. I do not like pastels, but other then that I love almost everything. :mrgreen: |
I worked with some luminaries and loved them!!! I would love to have more. Maybe when I am out of fabric!

Let's see, yep, I love them all. But when I enter a quilt shop the thing that really grabs me is unusual fabrics. I have picked out some really "weird" stuff, but they often make cool quilts.
|
I like the 1800s stuff a lot. I also love bright, clear colors paired with white.
|
I love the pastels and the small prints!

I automatically head for the black/white prints, then head for the patriotic fabrics. After that, it's on to bright colored flowers on a black background. I also avoid anything with (supposedly) straight lines on it, since I know from experience they won't be straight when I get done with them and I hate to see the wobbles.
|
I like most things except novelty prints. I went through a 1930's stage, but I am done with that. I don't care for Thimbleberries - they all look alike to me.
|
I am drawn to CW reproduction fabrics and Kansas Troubles Quilters fabrics. I like deep rich colors. BUT, I also have a stash of 30s repros, black and whites, blue and yellows, I spy, etc. I have even collected some hot pink, orange and yellow batiks that I am going to step out of my comfort zone and use in a quilt! There is NO telling at any given time what I might be buying! :lol:
|
I have a serious addiction to batiks of all kinds.
|
I am like Extreme Quilter. I am drawn to batiks. When I make a quilt I go to them first.
I like fabrics that have textural designs not necessarily flowers or whatever. I like it to have movement. I don't use solids at all. I would rather use a tone on tone. But mostly it depends on what type of quilt I am making. I don't do a lot of traditional quilts. I prefer Art Quilts. Sybil |
Pinks (my FAVORITE color), patriotic prints, 1930s kids repo, and "beachy" colors.

I have just discovered the fusion blenders by robert kaufamn. They (all colors) are talking to me. I also have a soft spot for 30's repros and batiks. But I rally love lamost anything except maybe stripes and plaids. It all screams at me "buy, buy, buy"!
