    Anybody else have favorites??
    I love purple and have lots with shades from the purple family in many of my quilts. I plan to do an all purple quilt when I get finished with my three major projects I need to get done by Christmas this year.

    I love fall colors...could be because I'm a September baby : ) I also love black & whites with a touch of bold, i.e. red or lime green!
