Yesterday while I was straightening things up and putting many of my quilts away I made what was to me a very interesting discovery. All the quilts that I have kept for myself over the years are for lack of a better way of saying things, are very plain and neutral in colors. I LOVE rich colors and for the life of my don't understand why I don't have a single quilt that is rich in colors. Not a purple on in the bunch! I know I have made many quilts that were rich in colors but they have all gone as gifts or been sold. fortunately the palets that I have chosen for my new quilting projects are rich in colors. Turquoise, blues, purples and even black! Does this happen to anyone else out here? Do you get to keep any of your rich and colorful quilts or do they become the loving property of a loved one? What favorite color scheme would you make (or have made) that you got to keep for yourself? julia
