YELLOW but I have finally learned to incorporate it in my work.

BROWN!!!! My husband worked for U.P.S. for 33 years so we are pretty sick of brown!

I have never used yellow in a quilt. I don't have it anywhere in my house and I never wear yellow either. Just not for me.

I don't think there is any color I hate...color combinatios can be so varied and look good together but I guess my least favorite would be the thimbleberries type, (where almost everything is dark and muted)!

Funny you should say this. I LOVE orange, and have hard time not thinking about it when I am trying to match colors. With the right shades and values, orange looks great with green, blue, yellow, tan, brown, gold,black and more that escape me now. Can you tell I love orange??. :mrgreen: :lol:

Count me in for pink, any pink, any shade; however, I am coming to love the deepest, darkest purples but hate lilac and lavender (except as an essential oil for burns, that is).

My friend, CJOMomma, gets all my pink sent to her whether she wants it or not. Not many shipments going there since I got rid of it and, thankfully, no one has asked me to use it again. All the colors I love are in my avatar.

I don't really like pink. I use it, sparingly, as it blends well in the scrap quilts I love to make. But, after one request for a custom quilt in pink, I say NEVER again!
