And In The Meadow… By: Susan Cook, Pennsylvania, USA This quilt is my first original design. When I first published it, I made the carrot button noses from polymer clay and I could make about 60 of them an hour. My hands were stained orange for 3 days after. Since then, I’ve had my buttons made by a company that reproduced one of my handmade buttons. Quilt size: width: 33" height: 41" |

Snowman Quilt By: piecrust, Georgia, USA This quilt represents my family and friends as snowmen. Fun to make, and even more fun to characterize someone as a snowman.

Winter Weekends By: Kaaren Biggs, Ontario, Canada An extra-long cuddle quilt for my son who is 6′ 7″ tall – snowmobiling is how he relaxes after a busy week in the corporate world!

Hmmmmmmmm good question……….think black and cream ;-)
I’m using white now a lot.
White! It’s so versatile.
Definitely white!
I use white. Specifically, Kona PFD (Prepared for Dying) but grey is a close second.
I use a lot of black.
Shades of White.
Red. I like to add a little red in all my quilt and projects.
I use Kona “Snow” for an all-purpose white. It seems to go with both cool and warm colours.
white as a background, but sash with whatever is a suitable
colour.
Lately I have been into the yellow-creams, (verging into pale yellow). It’s been really sunny here the past few days, so maybe I am just trying to rush spring. SOOOOOO ready for winter to be over!
White is the color I use the most. Thanks for the giveaway. I love the houndstooth fabric.
I use a lot of blues..over run in boy babies..lol
Neutrals like calico color & white lately.
I tend to use a lot of blues but not necessarily solids. Were I to look in my solid fabric bins, probably I have more shades of blue ready to use than any other color.
I have been using more solid white lately.
love to be entered in giveaway thanks
oops forgot to answer
yellow
I’ve been using various shades of gray lately…both dark and light.
I used a lot of white solid… all range of white. Voting for only three this week is really tough…so many beautiful works!
I used light pink for my last quilt because that was what I had on hand, but think I’ll be switching to white or cream for future ones.
Los azules y toda su variedad de celestes pegan con casir todo lo que hago .Gracias a su increíble trabajo y a Katy.Cariños.
Oh my, the quilts this week are so charming, it was very difficult to choose.
When I dó my own sewing, I guess green solid is my number one colour, simply because my stash is overflowing with green solids. They seem to grow in number lol. I really love green, it makes the Warmer colours shine.
ik gebruik momenteel veel paars
groeten
It depends, but often neutrals like calico.
I’m using Kona’s Stone most lately.
I like to use a little bit of red in a lot of my quilts. I use shades of white often too.
White is kind of my go-to solid, but it’s not actually solid usually, more tone-on-tone.
Great work everyone! It was hard to select only 3!
The solid color I use most in my quilts… Blue!
I am not really partial to any one colour. but if I look at my scrap bins, blue and white/lights are over flowing these days.
I would say it is a tie between blue and green.
The solid colour I use most is blue.
If I use a solid it is yellow which is more often than not the background color.
I use Ecru quite a bit when I sew.
Thanks,
mostly creams.
I love to use a lot of bright colors, but blue is my favorite.
Seems to be red, judging by my stash pile.
I can’t live without a green of some shade.
Pink. Many women is that we are home!
Gracias!
I use dark blue. And that is because the quilts I make are all tardis quilts. Though when I make other quilts I usually use a pannel and not a lot of solid.
