    It is hard to pick a favorite but I know I have more blue than any other color in my stash! Your fabric is so lovely.

    Purple has been my firm favourite for many years. I love the way you have graded the purple through to aqua. Actually, I find all of the colours in your beautiful range inspiring and I usually shy away from anything anywhere near “orange”.
    I really enjoy reading the blogs about your 12×12 adventures. It was a privilege to see the display at the Quilt & Craft Fair.

    Blue is my favorite! I love purples and greens as well. These are all beautiful fabrics.

    My favorite colour is quite clear: each and every one of them, in all hues and shades!

    Aqua! I love ALL colours, but aqua in all its various states has appealed to me since I was a child with my very first set of colour pencils. ๐Ÿ™‚

    The greens are my favorite. The brighter the better!

    Lucious lime green – yummy!

    oops! of course I meant luscious limes.

    All 7 of the color wheel fabrics are candy-licious! The aqua/turquoise is my favorite.

    We really enjoyed the demonstration today, thanks. My favourite would be the oranges, especially if there is any purple associated with it.

    All these colours are gorgeous – but if I have to choose one it would be the orange. I am looking to dye some of my own – thank you for all your inspiration and tips. Dianna

    You will probably not be surprised to hear that anything from red to orange is my favorite!

    Love your fabrics! My favorite color is brick/rust red. It’s so warm and mixes well with my other favorite colors of autumn.
