Pantone's 2016 colours were baby pink and baby blue.

B.O.R.I.N.G.

IMO, that's why there never caught on.

why do people have to wit for what's new. I go my own way, never jumped on the color of the year.
I'm not into doing what everyone else is doing. I'm not in the box with everyone else. My dh says i'm so far out of the box, i'm around the corner in an octagon.

I have used purples in scrap quilts but have never made a purple quilt. Well, guess what, I have been working on 2 different purple/lavender quilts for the last 2 weeks. One is ready for the blocks to be set. Then I want to make a green quilt. I made one but gave it to my granddaughter since it is her favorite color.
