When I started quilting I didn't like 30s fabric. Joined a block of the month that was 30s print. Now I love it. Enjoy batiks and pastels. Don't like Civil war or dark , but I have used then in quilts for male relatives. When I make a quilt for me, it is all pastels. Can't imagine making a Thimbelberries quilt. that being said, I might change my mind sometime.
