Color Choices

When I first started quilting I found that most of the fabrics I purchased were all medium tones, small prints and basically boring. As the years have gone on my tastes have changed to more contrast, brighter colors, less floral etc. I guess that is why we end up with big stashes of fabrics. We buy and then out tastes change and we don't use those fabrics.

One of the things I love about doing longarm quilting for people is seeing the color/fabric combinations they come up with. Some I don't care for but most I really enjoy. Brown is one of my least favorite colors in clothing, decorating or quilting. I know brown and pink is a very popular color combination but never thought I would find myself drawn to a pink/brown quilt.

This picture is a customer pink/brown quilt I finished yesterday and I just love it. I don't know if my tastes are changing again, or if it is just the great combination of fabrics in this one.
