I like to use solids since I don't like busy quilts.

I rarely use anything but blenders and solids. Moda Marbles and Bella solids make up the bulk of my stash, I buy both by the bolt.

I also have some Hoffman batiks, but don't use those as much... not much on the look of batiks in quilts unless it's applique.

I really like solids for my Amish quilts, and for a rest place in my quilts. I have gotten away from most calico prints, and fussy prints, I like hand dyed, solids, batiks, and mottled fabrics, as well as TOT.

Mariposa

I prefer the marbled/mottled ones, then tone-on-tone. I find I do not use solids much at all, except black. Then I use the dark Amish black.

I love marbles/mottled colors, but I also use a lot of tone on tone prints that read as solids. Compared to a year ago, I'd say I use more marbles than I did then.

Jim's Gem

I don't use solids. I use tone on tones and blenders. My favorites are the Robert Kaufman Fusions.

The only solids I use are black Konas. I like tone on tones.

I prefer blenders to solids, unless we're talking black. Black really does make other colors pop.
I just bought a yard each of four different Mark Lipinski's new blenders in Vermont today. I haven't seen them here in NH yet and they are gorgeous.

Annaquilts

I use less blenders this year and also less thematic prints.

I strongely prefer tone on tone over solids for blenders.

The only solids I buy are kona black and kona red and solids for 1930-s fabrics. Have some in every color for that time frame but I only use them with my 1930 prints and sparingly.

I liked the fossil ferns, Hoffman batik and am at the end of a big stack of patrick loose fabric. For some reason the moda marbles do not appeal as much to me.

I dont use solids but I use all of the others alot.
