Yellow and Gray Fabric
I was at a quilting retreat this weekend and a couple of the gals were working on gray and yellow quilts. Yellow is my favorite color and I used to work with gray quite a bit and still have several gray fat quarters. Does anyone know of any current fabric lines that use gray and yellow that I could use as my focal fabrics?

Joann's has a yellow and gray line in their more expensive quilting fabric line.

It appears that gray is the new black .... or something like that! Seems like everything I see now is or has gray in it. Some I like, some I don't. I would think you might be able to find a gray and yellow in any fabric store now .... unless gray is already on the "outs" and a new color has taken over. You know, I just cannot keep up with all the new trends. Yep, I am not very trendy for sure.
PS: I just typed "yellow gray fabric" into ebay and you wouldn't believe the number of hits I got. I may have to rethink using those colors ..... or not! |
What goes around comes around! In the late seventies, it was gray with rust.

Last fall I picked up a couple of pieces of some really pretty grey and Yellow fabrics. This line is from Bernatex "What's the Buzz..." There was a cute one with bee, the one I have is a pretty grey with yellow and white flowers Daisy Buzz - c 5241 and another stipe STYX-C 5244
Hope you can find what you need! |
Riley Blake fabric has yellows and grays. Lots of cute prints. Probably could get it at a LQS. Otherwise online, maybe Amazon? I'm working on my 2nd baby quilt this year where gray was requested. It's the new neutral I guess.
I'm still stuck on lime green...not ready to move on yet! |
I picked up an amazing floral/paisley at JoAnns before Christmas...it was gray background with yellow, white and peach flowers...black accents/swirls/paisley.....it may sound yuk but it was so pretty. My aunt's kitchen is "peach" so this was the focus fabric for the placemats, runner and pot holders. She loved it.

Timeless Treasure has a fabric line called TAXI by Alice Kennedy. LOVED the free pattern that came out with the fabric line. I am doing it in Red and Black.

I am making a quilt using the yellow, black, grey and white color combination. Here is a block I've made with it.
