«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 1184 Newer› Newest»Not nearly enough browns...
neutrals. tans, creams, grays, blacks.
Orange is my favorite color and it shows in my stash. There are actually two colors I don't have a lot of. Red and purple, for a long time I thought it was because there weren't many good purple prints out there but I've found a lot of them lately. I need to increase both of these but I have a hard time buying fabrics if I don't have a specific plan thats what makes winning it even better :)
I don't have enough greens or oranges. Great giveaway!!
Not nearly enough red. Thanks!

Yellow! I'm only just starting to enjoy using it!!
I'm missing all the colours in my stash since I've just started quilting. Great giveaway! Thanks!
I don't have much on the turquoise shades. I really like it and have seen alot of cute pink and turquoise quilts around lately. Thanks for the giveaway. quiltexas@gmail.com
i love all colors, but really only have black and white in my collection.
Brown, absolutely brown. I can never find one when I need it.
I don't own orange in my stash. I never was drawn to orange. But strangely I really love the fabricline sunkissed and this just so surprises me! Perhaps some day i will also find some orange in my fabricstash!
Thanks so much for your give away!
Purple! I was recently making a
30's print sampler quilt, and had a really hard time coming up with enough puple/lavender.
I'm with you. As much as I love ORANGE, it is the least represented in my stash. Yellow is a close second. I love having my fabrics sorted by colors--it makes it easy to see that I really don't any more of some colors and should be on the eye out for some others ... like ORANGE.
I'm heavy on Blues and Greens and with girls in the house now, I'm heavier on pink than I would be on my own. What I find I'm missing are orange, purple and yellow. Thanks for the giveaway.
Greens are lacking. Browns too. I seem to lean towards pinks and purples. I'd love to win the strips - I have a strip quilt in mind soon! And I have to say - your blog helped me motivate and complete my first ever real quilt:
http://junebugworld.blogspot.com/2011/05/pips-quilt-completed.html
and I am thrilled to be right under you on the SMS giveaway list :)
Oh I have to say Fuchsia is my fav and I have NONE... so Fuchsia is definitely under-represented in my stash.... I need to fix that stat
I am so new to sewing that the only color in my stash is the brown for the blanket I am making right now. :(
My stash is lacking in blue - not the lighter blues or ones that could be called aqua/teal/turquoise, but pure blue, like the Indigo colorway in Prince Charming (must get some!)
Oooh, Julie, these strips are so yummy! I would say I lack purples in my stash.
These strips would be perfect for a quilt with little squares! I like purple and blue and I have tons of it, but I never seem to have the right purple and or blue when I need it. Even though pink is probably my 3rd favorite, there is so much great pink fabric out there I have plenty. So I definitely need more blue and purple! Thanks for the chance to win!
Thanks for the great giveaway, all those fabrics are super cute. I usually quilt with very bright colors, so the one that is most under-represented would probably be purple. :-)
Orange. I don't have much orange.
I always am in search of more yellow prints that I like!
Purple and orange are probably the most under represented in my stash!
What a great bunch of fabrics you have to give away. So pretty. The most underrepresented fabric in my stash surprisingly enough is my favorite color of purple. I'm finding myself doing the very samme thing I've done in decorating our home. I'm so afraid of painting the entire inside of our home in purple that I haven't got even one room that's purple. LOL Even my couch that I special ordered about 9 yrs ago I had originally planned to get in a rich purple color but then changed my mind and ordered Eggplant instead. TOTALLY regret that since Eggplant in a dim room appears to be brown. ewwwwwwww SO not what I wanted.
i think my stash could use some more orange too!
I'm very minimal in the neutral department as well as the solid department. Lovely giveaway!
fabulous giveaway!
my daughter recently decided that purple is her favorite color and that's when i figured out that, um, i don't have any purple - oops! :)

I have very little pink!
Anything bright and fun (I always use those up first).
I am short on green...but I think it is my favorite and I manage to use it all up =D ~
I love fabric bundles (I'm nervous about trying to match fabrics online) But I'd like to have more small patterns on-hand to supplement the bundles
hmmmm. . . at the moment i don't have many colors of fabric. i have been good and not purchased much lately. but gray and red seem to ones i look for and don't find.
thanks!
leisel
Purple and Gray are both DEFINITELY under-represented in my stash. I need to start picking up some yummy fabrics in those colors. I'm just more attracted to greens, blue, and bright reds and yellows.
I don't have enough turquoise and grey. I love the mis though !
Thank you !
(marika_ouellet@hotmail.com)
I really could use more purple fabrics in my stash. Purple is one of my favorite colors and yet for some reason I am seriously lacking in great purple fabrics.
Love your blog - thanks for the chance to win =)

Oooh, thanks so much for this giveaway! I already have a perfect project in mind for it:) The colour I'm most lacking is actually red. Thanks!
I'm lacking in the Red/Orange/Yellow hues. Thanks for doing the giveaway. Whoopie!!
Hi! I have been searching my stash and realize I don't have much blues, although it is, in fact, my favourite colour!
i love when i see people use gray and tans and beige in quilts, but I don't have any in my stash
I am lacking in solids of all types. How can this be with all the great bundles popping up? Anyway, I think some browns would be much needed!
I could use a tad more of the brown/tan family....for contrast. Thanks for the chance to win.
My most underrepresented is probably white - I just love colors!
Thanks for the giveaway!
jmhamlin826 AT yahoo DOT com
Orange is the most unrepresented color in my stash and that's becoming a problem because I've been loving it lately! LOL! jinglesells at gmail dot cm
I don't have much red in my stash, just lots of greens and purples!
alisonDblanchard [at] yahoo [dot] com
thanks for a chance! i have very low amount of reds in my stash.
Purples....no purples 'cept for 1 fat quarter of Hoopla.
I was shocked when I got done sorting projects and fabric over the weekend.
Thanks for hosting the giveaway!
Yellow and orange are missing. I love them in other quilts, but they never seem to find their way into my quilts :)
fluffysheepquilting(at)gmail(dot)com
Definately blue, I dont know why, its not that I dont like it, but I just dont buy much of it. And yellow, but that because I dont like it so much :o)
Purple! I like purple but until recently, there wasn't much to choose from.
I've recently started to gather fabric for a subway quilt I'm working on and am having such a hard time finding grey fabric. Please pick me!
Black! I wanted to make a pillow the other day and wanted a dark background. I pulled out the tub marked "Grays and Blacks" and nothing! Lots of grays but no blacks.
As much as I love RED, I don't seem to have very much of it in my stash. I am not a fan of purple and probably have NO purple fabrics.
I'm just getting started so I don't have much of anything in my stash, but bright bold colors are missing, I've done mostly baby things and have lots of pastels
I love greens, but never seem to have enough variety and colour groupings!
Maria
blue is absolutely my lightest colour. Once upon a time I overdosed on it so I have been avoiding it ever since! Love your patterns.
As the mother to only BOYS.. I'd have to say Pink. I don't buy nearly as much as I'd like.
Hi there!
Well, I have very little purple fabric. As in MAYBE two purple prints. Purple just isn't my color! Thanks for the chance to win. robobritt at gmail.com
Reds are definitely my most under-represented. Next are the purples. I have been attracted to lots of pinks lately, so I need to regain some balance in the stash!
I love red but I think the reds are lacking in my stash. I need to do some thing about that.
Warm colors are under represented. I have no orange and no yellow.
Like you I love orange but when recently re-organizing my stash realized its my smalles stack of fabric.
I love the full rainbow, but most often choose red orange clothing- yet I have almost no red/orange fabric for myself!
I need more purple!
i have no pink. pink is my least favourite colour... i'll have to get over that one day.
definitely green - I love it but have not stashed much.
LOL, Yellow and pink are definitely under-represented in my collection about equally! I love blues and greens, and tend to gravitate towards them. Great give-away!
Linda
Gray. I absolutely adore gray fabrics and I really don't have that many.
I don't have enough different yellows. You know you usually don't use a lot of this color but when you do you need just the right one. Thanks for participating in the giveaway day. You have such yummy gifts.
orange. I can never find orange prints/colors that I like. then wehen I want to use it in a quilt, I can't!
I struggle to find bright yellows. I only seem to be able to find pastel or mustardy yellows but I really love bright yellow like the solid in the picture
Woah! I love this giveaway, Julie. I like color and to see them all spread out like that. It's so pretty.
That being said I don't really have a stash so I need all the colors of the rainbow. lol. But I have a feeling I'll use the cool colors (blues, greens, purples) faster then others.
p.s. my email is khsmiles(at)juno(dot)com
I'm decidedly missing solids and neutrals! I have no whites, no beige, no natural linen (what I REALLY want!), nada! I could sew a mountain side of villages clothes from all my prints but, though I love them, no solids to speak of!!
Yellow. Thanks for the chance! thurbs8(at)yahoo(dot)com.
Im working on increasing my blues right now. Thanks!
I love all the polka dots, and seriously I don't have any... I love blue and I've got lots of different blues but I am quite short of reds which I kind of like.
Thanks for the opportunity
Yellow is missing in my stash. And very little blue.
Thanks for the chance to win.
would you believe black and white... I have my fabrics by color and the black and white drawer hold s the least amount... then the tans... might be because I use them the most... there is a pattern I want to make and it is all black and white or white and black fabrics...
My daughter's favorite color is purple and I tend to use a lot of it. I don't have much of that right now. I am also having a hard time finding grays.
For some reason, I haven't bought any brown fabric, so that's mine!
Fabulous giveaway! I have so wanted to try quilter's linen and these basics are so much more than basics to me!
Probably blue is most lacking from my smallish stash. I have turquoise but not much real blue. I attribute that to our winter climate where warmer colours seem more attractive.
I have almost no yellow fabric at all! I think it's because it makes me look dead when I wear it, so I just stay away from it entirely!
I think it's a tie between purple and orange. I have maybe 5 prints in each color--it's so sad!
That is true, I love green and that is what I need more of. I guess it is because I use it so much;)
Debbie
Awesome giveaway, Julie!!! I just looked through my stash last week for quilting bee blocks that needed my stash. I really don't have a lot of grey. Lately, grey seems to be a new favorite so that is one color that is underrepresented in my stash. Lovely picture of all those scrumptious fabrics!!!!
Cristina
I have absolutely no purple.
I would have to say purple but it would be closely folloed by grey.
Pink is the fabric I have the least of, even though I have 2 little girls!
I have very little white and pale neutrals in my stash... guess I'd better stock up, even tho they don't catch my eye!
I would say that green and orange are probably the most underrepresented in my stash. I have way too many pinks too. Thanks for sharing!
Orange and yellow. I love bright fun fabrics, but they intimidate me and I always seem to pick more muted ones for my projects.
copper1047AThotmailDOTcom
Brown. I don't have enough brown.
so sweet, thanks for the chance to win! Orange fabric is hard to find, I can see how it is under represented in your stash.
I think white is under represented in my stash
I've been trying to work on it, but yellow is still under-represented in my stash!
Don't really have much of a stash for anything to be missing from!
Both orange and purple are very underrepresented in my stash.
I don't have a lot of orange. It's not one of my favorite colors, but it is necessary to have for certain projects. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway!!!
Yellow and I have a difficult relationship. Ha.
I don't have much red - my stash leans towards blues!
Blues are definitely missing from my stash. I wonder why. Oh,and I really like the look of the quilters linen. I have not seen any in our one quilting store here in Israel :).
I realized last week that I don't have many neutral colors in my stash. Shades of browns or grays is mostly what I need to start collecting for my stash. Looks like this would be a good start!!
I've found that purple and yellow are not enough in my stash. May that be because I enjoy sewing with them more and use them more than the others that get stuffed in there?
I have lots of colorful fabric in my stash, but I don't have many neutral shades, no browns or tans or grays. How strange, right? I'm just all about color. So I LOVE this giveaway! What an awesome quilt these strips could make.
In a hexagon flower swap recently my partner asked for blue petals, and I was surprised to find how little I had in blue fabrics!
I don't have many solids at all. I need to build stock. I love the yellow/gray combination, but I don't have any grey fabric. Thanks.
kristie_keely(at)yahoo(d0t)com
I don't have much red and yellow.
Red - i love red and for some reason i don't seem to have any, i guess i tend to use it as soon as it hits my house and doesn't sit round long enough to become part of the stash!
Definitely red!
I'm definitely shy on Greys and oranges!
There's never enough pink in my stash. Sigh.
I would have trouble finding ANY yellow in my stash - solid or prints. Now that I have said that, I bet I start finding tons of yellows that I love :-)
Blue. my favourite colour but dont have any
The most under represented color in my stash has to be black. Thanks for the opportunity to enter your giveaway :)
What an awesome giveaway, love those linens! I would have to say purple is absent from my fabric stash. Thank you for the chance to win!
I pretty much have no purple what so ever! Those fabrics looks awesome! Thanks for the giveaway!
bruinbr at gmail dot com
Definitely purple. It's a favourite colour but I never have enough in my stash!
love the fabrics!...I am always low on my blues...Love your quilts!
Gray because I love it so much in quilts that I keep using it up!
Purple is one of my favorite colors but I barely have any in my stash!
I don't have much yellow in my stash. Thanks for the chance to win!
Yellow. I love to add bright colors! Thanks for the chance to win! sophie (at) bleuvanille (dot) com
It's definately purple and green, two colors my eyes are not drawn to!!
hmmmm reds seem to be missing... and whites as well
Orange, I think I have only one or two tiny pieces of it! Oooh, maybe this gives me a reason to go fabric shoping! I'll just tell everyone that I'm out of orange and I can't be missing such a wonderful color!
I tend to buy fabric for a project that I want to start instead of having a large stash. So basically every color is underrepresented in my stash cause I don't really have one.
Hm, I think I'd have to say orange, or brown? I'm more of a green and blue kind of girl, so the earth tones are very underrepresented! Thanks for a fantastic giveaway!
I haven't had the chance to really build up my stash yet. I'd say what is most missing from my stash though are bright spring colors like blue and green. Thanks for the giveaway!
I went to make hexies for my swap and I found i lacked yellows and golds. Thank you for the great giveaway. 2.5 strips are fantastic for 1" hexies.
under represented color in my stash is green
Definitely yellow. It is hard to find a good one. Thanks for the chance to win!
I'd say brown is probably most lacking in my stash, although my yellow fabrics are also a little sparse at the moment!
Definitely don't have enough reds/purples...
Mine would have to be whites. I don't have alot of red either, but not my favorite color and I have a really hard time using it because of that. Thanks for the chance.
Purple, I only have a few tiny pieces. Great giveaway, thanks for the chance to win!
Yellow and purple. I love them when I see others use them in projects but I never seem to buy them.
smargster@msn.com
I lack red and yellow....if I need it I usually snag it from my mom's stash.
I don't have much on the yellow side of any color. I truly am missing yellows and oranges.
Thanks
Hmm. What color would that be? I think maybe orange. Not a favorite so I'm not drawn to it.
Having recently sorted my STASH, and I certainly do not have a lot of green, as my daughter was looking thru my fabrics to find just the right color,as always there never is. Thanks you for letting me enter. Miep.
I am lacking purple because I love it and use it all up! Thanks for the chance
the colour I have the least of is Pink...especially hot pink...weird considering I have 2 little girls!!
michelletripper(at)yahoo(dot)ca
Yellow, I don't have any in my small stash.
I need more yellow
Earth tones are very low right now,i've just finished 2 large quillts for family members wanted earthtone colours. All of your colours are yummy!! great give away!
I love working with whites and creams and in total I think I have less then half a meter and some random scraps :O
You mean I have to be organized enough to know what I have??? Last time that I needed to dig, I had a hard time finding yellow, so that would be my guess.
I'm lacking oranges, greens and yellows - go figure. Thanks.
I don't have enough greens, love them but never seem to have enough.
I love love the cool colors so much I olnly have a few differnet chades of red and orange. Sad! I would love to win such an amazing give away!!
Castlerugby@live.com
Take care,
Heather
I would have to say purple. I love purple, but I only have a few small purple scraps :(
limor477 at aol dot com
Hi Julie,I don't have a huge stash (not yet of course), so there aren't many colors there but I think that blue and red is what I'm missing the most.
I am new to quilting so I am sorely understaffed in alll colors!! So hope I win this!!
Oh my goodness yes! Thanks for the lovely eye candy. This would come to good use!
Browns and greys are under represented in my stash. I love color!
I would have to say RED is the most lacking in my stash at this point as I just made a quilt that is majorly red.
My favorite color is green. My stash is low on white and pastels.
those are great fabrics.
I'm with you, I have very little orange. I think it's hard to find just the right shade.
Green is my favorite color and it shows in my stash. My closet has no grey and very little white and pastel. these are great fabrics you're offering.
maggie
So my comment is exactly your example but replace green with purple. I adore purple. Yet apparently I'm a purple fabric snob. I barely have any purple you would think it was the worst color in the world.
Can you ever have enough of a color? ;) I miss blue. And brown (which I don't like). Have tons of red :)
Bye
Susanne
Neutrals are underpopulated--I am too attracted to the color wheel and forget about white, beige, cream, even brpwn.
Orange...I like some of it, especially a lot of the newer lines, just haven't boughten any! Thanks for a chance at winning, what a great prize!
Probably purple. I do like it, just not as much as yellows, oranges, blues and greens, so I've not gone out of my way to acquire any. Great giveaway, thanks for the chance. :)
Wow. This is my favorite so far. I have almost no red or orange. Hmm, interesting. I didn't notice that until now!
I know that grey is the hot neutral right now. But I don't think I have any.
I dont have much orange and pink in my stash:-)
It didn't take long to go through my stash because I am just starting, but I have absolutely no yellow or purple.
I am new to quilting. You would laugh at what my stash is. But when I am looking for a certain color it seems to be green closely followed by brown. It is run trying to get a stash going, but the economy isnt helping lol. I love your quilts and enjoy following your quilts in the magazines and your blogs. Thanks
I hardly have any purple in my resource center.
I found out that I don't have much red in my stash much to my surprise
Looking at my stash I would have to say yellow is poorly off in my closet. only about 4 inches stacked compared to other colors that are double or triple that!
Inoticed recently I have very little gray. I am working on the problem with a smile on my face.
Oddly enough, I don't have enough blacks. The one color I need to sometimes blend things together and I seldom have one piece of black that will work with the overall pattern. Hhhmmm...
It would have to be tan. Most of my fabrics are bright, bold and very colorful.
Hmm green & orange :P
Pink and yellow and purple (and neutrals). I have tons of blue and red! quite a bit of green too.
I am looking for teals- never enoough in my stash.
I never buy orange fabric although I love the color.
Well, you are ahead of me. I haven't thought of sorting my fabric. I'd say brown.
I am floored by all those colors! My stash is pretty pitiful actually so almost any color would do, but green is probably the color I have the least of.
What a great giveaway - count me in and thanks!!
I have very little brown and also need a true blue, like a primary blue.
I don't have a lot of pinks to deep reds.
Purple is so very underrepresented in my stash. I have one purple/teal print and two purple solids. Whoops.
lindsay.forgette at gmail dot com
Purples!
ecisley(at)comcast(dot)net
I don't have enough of any colours - my fabric stash is very small!
Gem

I am short of greens and yellows and browns.
All this blog visiting has me inspired to play with my fabrics.
Thanks for your giveaway.
um I would have to say yellows and oranges!! which is weird because I love those colors!!
Oboed@aol.com
Can't believe I lived in Philly for a year without knowing the awesomeness happening there! I started quilting at that time and now I'm all out of my lovely aqua's since I'm back in the Netherland! Aqua!
Orange is my most under-represented colours in my stash... i.e. I have zero orange in my stash.
oh how i would lurrrve to have this!! green is one of my favorite colors but i hardly have any green fabric!!
No pink. Or yellow. Man, I really need to get on that!
I have very little Yellow! It's such a happy colour but I have less than a dozen pieces? Must buy more fabric!
rebecca.bird@clear.net.nz
I have far too much prints in my stash ... need to get more solid colours but the one colour I probably need / want is green .. love it !! Thanks for the giveaway.
I have only recently begun to quilt so I don't have a stash built up yet! Eek...I better get to purchasing more fabric!
Definitely don't have enough yellow. It is high on my list of favorite colors but for whatever reason the LQS doesn't care a lot of it.
Green. I love green and need more in my life. Thanks for the fun giveaway!
Although I have two little girls I just have no pink fabric, because I really don´t like pink.
Definitely not underrepresented is red, white, and blue, and black, and green. I would have to say yellow, not much of that around here! Thanks!
That selection is amazing! I totally need those "basics" strips.
The most under-represented color in my stash is probably... purple. I hardly buy any of that. The most over-represented color is pink, because I don't like it much but a plethora of nieces have encouraged it to blossom in my stash.
I would have to say orange.
