Here you go, a lot of people have responded to this they send you a free pre cut kit and you finnish it and send it back to them.

Mine have themes over the years - I went through a blue period, basket period, Americana period, and such. I think the beauty of building a good stash is you are not limited by this year's "in" colors.
I think most of the older quilters with country blue/mauve and seafoam/peach quilts will agree with me!

Gee - good question. I don't know that I can answer that since I have done a variety of patterns and a variety of colors. Some of the color combinations are not my style and are quite challenging. Now if I only worked in colors/values I liked, they might start looking alike.
I find that joining swaps (where the partner's preference is stated) is a good and easy way to branch out. Another way is to take classes and try something new.
.....however, if the quilts are well done and pretty - does it matter if they fit in the same family?
