I've seen it a lot with yellow lately and I just adore that combination, it's also really fun with red/pink. I've used it a few times in my applique quilts but never alone. I do love the quilt pattern and if I don't win I may just have to get it anyway!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856794934610019449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-31310797246622512172012-02-15T16:39:15.581-07:002012-02-15T16:39:15.581-07:00I would love to use more gray in my quilts!

I don't think I'd want to make an entirely grey quilt but I am planning a grey/red/stone/white quilt right now ... for my son. Something masculine. In fact, I've already grabbed some of the very fabrics for this very quilt. Since I've seen up close and personal what beautiful fabrics they are both in design and touch, I would dearly love some more!Heather Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10225483666564626507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-67254118010715012322012-02-15T09:40:07.981-07:002012-02-15T09:40:07.981-07:00I love gray - it is a staple in my wardrobe - but ...I love gray - it is a staple in my wardrobe - but I have only recently started using it much in quilts. Last fall, I pieced a black/gray/hint of red skull quilt from Boo Davis's Basket Case pattern. I have started collecting gray fabric ever since, and I hope to do more. I have enough gray/yellow fabric to make a quilt, but I cannot decide on a pattern.

He is 14 and beginning to upgrade his room (getting ready to invite girls? *gulp*) and he definitely needs a nice cover for his bed. Grey seems to be perfect for a boy who likes his stuff to be "manly". I might combine it with either blue or black but wouldn't dare to use any brighter color with it...<br />Thank you for the generous giveaway!Dütt un Datthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10868896992697511944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-24586699819595408172012-02-14T12:17:24.477-07:002012-02-14T12:17:24.477-07:00I love to pair grey with teal and/or pink for baby...I love to pair grey with teal and/or pink for baby quilts!
