There is a particular range of baby-poop (could be green or could be brown) that I probably would not use in a quilt - but how could I hate such expression of a natural phenomenon. arr arr.
LOL on the baby poop. Years ago, my hubby and Daughter found a Dodge car they really liked and the only way to describe the color was METALLIC BABY POOP.

I totally agree with you. I like bright clear colors, not the grayed or washed out colors. They don't make me happy.
Especially Thimbleberries colored fabrics. blech!!!

Joyceinoh,
I don't understand it either, makes the jeans look dirty, I'd be tempted to bleach them lol
That goes for the expensive jeans that are all ripped up too. I can do that all on my own and not pay lots of money.

I can't see why anyone would pay for something like that.
My son gets a stain like that on his work jeans and nothing I do seems to bring it out.. And while we are OT here. Why would anyone want to buy jeans with rips in them?
Hubby went to buy new pants but the ones he thought were worn out looked better then the new ones. :(

That quilt is beautiful... BEAUTIFUL...but for my choices, I would have had to have used greens, or blues, or fushia....

I don't hate any colors but I do shy away from orange.
