sounds like SPRING FEVER to me...:cool:
i as what my mother always called (her rainbow child)
i like color! all colors!
i have had to force myself (personal challenges) to use black & white a couple times---those have turned out very cool---of course i did add some red---but it was very hard for me to work with the black & whites- even though to look at them i really like them...as you can tell from my quilt pictures---i'm pretty (fearless) when it comes to color! I love it all!!!

Blues and Yellow also. Makes a lovely combo.

Purple. I had to leave the quilt store the other day because I promised myself NO purple. Yesterday at church I had a green top on. Three people came up to me and said what no purple. Guess I need an intervention.

I like pinks, purples, mostly cool colors, and love brights! Am thinking I need to do a happy summer quilt in fun brights!

I always look at the lavender/purple fabric and usually leave the store with at least one piece.

I am a pink and purple person but I have been buying all shades of brown and tan. My sister thinks there is something wrong with me. lol Of course there are still plenty of pinks and purples in my fabric cart.

I love grey! I have a lot of grey fabrics, and also turquoise/teals. I love deep eggplant/ aubergine purples, but I have almost no purple in my stash. I've been on the lookout for orangey pinks like salmon and melon lately.

1930's colors! I am going to start my first 30's quilt very soon.

Im making Sylvia's Bridal Sampler in pastels, so right now it's pink, soft yellow, blue, lavendar, soft green and aqua.

I'm not so much a "color" buyer as a "type" buyer. My faves (always) Civil War repros, cottage-y (think Robyn Pandolph), 1930's repros, Kansas Troubles, patriotic. Lately I've been more batiks & nature-inspired fabrics (for quilts for my DH).
