    I only have a little, which I bought to use in an upcoming project. I do like it. Just haven't worked into any other projects.

    Yep!! I use quite a lot of grey in quilts! Just doing a quilt now in soft greys, pale blues, pinks and am very pleased with the soft, subtle look! So, yes I like grey!!!

    I have made a quilt where the main colour is grey and I have pink, navy blue and white hearts and butterflies on it. It is always remarked on when I bring it out for "show and tell". I wanted to use the grey because I like to play with colours that others don't normally select.

    I made an airplane quilt from a pattern on here and it required gray for the plane. I have a little of it left.

    I have grey solids and several grey stone patterns. I use them for art quilts. Other than that, I dislike grey.

    I just made a black, grey and red quilt for a grandson, so I have two big chunks of grey and 2 or three fq in grey. Brown is also hard for me. Only three pieces of brown.
