I LOVE yellow in quilts--especially paired with blues.

I love how the color yellow just "pops". This was a baby quilt commissioned by a friend. Bright and lively for little Annie![ATTACH=CONFIG]318417[/ATTACH]

No yellow for me, if I can avoid it. I find it depressing. RED is the color I sneak into everything.

I did look at some of your quilts and they are beautiful but the yellow overwhelms me. I knew better than to open this thread!

I have yellows I could send some of you. I will never use them.

Here is some yellow for you!
But then it also has blue, red, purple, orange...
That may be why it works: lots of color.
Sometimes one color with a couple others can be "too much."

Let me see if I can find a yellow.

Dear MadQ, You are a person who likes a challenge if this is a picture of your first quilt. Wow!!! I bow to you!
