    I tend to go in phases. Right now, I'm trying to collect purples, greens, but starting to look at raspberry. So, you know what that means.....too much stash collecting. I need to start working on scrap quilts to bring that stash down a bit.

    Bright, happy colors. Do not like the murky, dark stuff except for an occasional contrast.

    Not so much colors as designs. I've discovered that my eyes always find the curvy, curlycue patterns. To me they are irresistible.

    As for colors, any shade of blue is always lovely!
