«Oldest ‹Older 601 – 800 of 1188 Newer› Newest»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.
I need neutrals in my stash - not that I have much of one though!
my stash is a bit lacking on subtle prints and patterns, but i find i never have any red.
i'm not a big fan of red, but i need it at times and i never have it.
I am sorely lacking in yellow fabrics. I seriously need to stock up.
Thanks so much for this fun giveaway! What a cool colorful stripey quilt these pieces could make!
I noticed yellow,purple and low orange.Thanks for doing this giveaway.
I just tried to pull some purple fabrics and realized I only had 4. Purple fail! Thanks for the giveaway Julie!
i DO NOT HAVE MUCH GREEN IN MY STASH.
Purple, not my favorite or maybe I just don't know how to use it.
I don't have much of a stash yet, but right now I don't have a lot of neutral colors. Thanks for the great giveaway!!
I could use some more brown, actually.
I'm still in the process of planning my first quilt composed of orange, turquoise, brown and olive. I've managed to amass a lot of oranges, one of my favorite colours, but browns and olives are sorely missing.
I have managed to quilt placemats and a few pot holders. A first quilt is so intimidating!
One block at a time...
I don't really have stash to speak of so I can safely say that almost every colour is seriously underrepresented.
I think I don't have enough purple in my stash. Thanks for the giveaway!
I find that i never have enough of cream fabrics. probably because I use them a lot as they go with most colours
Ros
DEFINITELY not enough turquoise/aqua, even though it's been one of my favorites for years :)
I have a lot of orange, yellow, and green in my stash - what probably goes unnoticed in my stash are the red/pink ones!
rachaelroyce [at] gmail [dot] com
thanks!
I have almost no grey. Purple is also underrepresented.
I want and need more grey in my life!
almondpanda AT gmail DOT com
I probably don't have a lot of pink or purple.
Brown - from creme/tan to deep chocolate
I am low on warm colors like orange and yellow. I've never been a fan of orange, but lately I find myself drawn to it.
Orange. And green -- I like only a few shades (must be BRIGHT and not muddy).
I think the color that is really lacking in my fabric collection is orange.
I have a small stash, so most colors would be underrepresented. :)
Love these fabrics though.
Most underrepresented is definitely yellow. I like yellow, I just never seem to buy it! Blues and purples I have loads of! Would love to win this great stash!
I'm in need of shades of grey! Thanks for the giveaway!
I don't have any orange... must rectify that! Thanks for the chance :o)
Would have to say oranges and neutrals- could use more of both! Thanks!:)
I have very few yellows. The ones I do have are very deep golden ones. I'm missing the lemony yellows.
It's a three way tie between orange, yellow, and grey. They're all colors I love, but for some reason, I don't have that much!
Orange and I am always looking for ones that appeal to me.
I could use more white, actually...Thanks for the chance!
I LOVE dark purple - I use it all up every time I can get my hands on it :)
jennifer(dot)holmes(at)rbc(dot)com
love your giveaway! :D
Yellow beyond the shadow of a doubt is the most lacking color, Don't know why.
I've been quilting for about 6 months, so I'm in desperate need of ALL colors!!! =)
I am new in the quilt world so my stash isn't that big but I do like orange and still don't have a singel orange fabric. fransansisco@hotmail.com Thank you for the chance to win.
Yellows and reds are pretty underrepresented in my stash. For some reason I am always drawn to blues and greens.
chancyf (at) gmail (d0t) com
I would say yellow and green are most unrepresented....
I need more yellow in my stash but I like all those fabrics!
I think orange would be the one least represented, I love it, but seem to have less of that, and greens also...love this fabric, so proud of you young women who are making such a huge difference in the quilting world!!
Wow thanks for the great giveaway. I'd have to say the color most lacking in my stash is blue. I love turquoise so there's plenty of that. Just no actual basic blue. Thanks for the chance to win!
sewlori27@yahoo.com
I store all of my fabric stash in color coordinated plastic storage boxes. I have two each for reds (and pinks) and blues, one of yellows (and oranges), and one of greens. But my purples and grays are in one box, with the purples outnumbering the grays. Grays, then, are my least used stash color. Actually, I can't ever remember ever using grays in a quilt.
I love all the colors. Thanks for the giveaway.
I don't have much yellow or solids.
Having moved house 6 months ago I had to reorganise my stash and found that autumn tones were the ones missing. Rust,yellow,gold to name a few.
I don't really have many blues...thank you for the giveaway..
I do not have enough orange. Always picking up pink and purples for the little granddaughters. Thanks for the giveaway and your blog. LOVE it:)
Without doing an official count I think black is the most underrepresented colour. I don't think I've ever bought black fabric!
I have virtually no red in my stash. Red is really I color I love, too. I'll have to work on that I guess.
Wow! I don't have any yellow! I can't wear yellow. Maybe that is why.
I am pretty new to quilting and hate to admit it but I am lacking in orange, yellow, green and violet fabric in my stash. Was I supposed to pick just one??? OK, I just peaked and I do not have any orange or yellow fabric, nope, nada, not even a scrap. Boy, I had better get shopping, huh?!
Purple is the most underrepresented fabric in my stash and I love the color!
I love green...but I never buy it (in fabric or in ready-made clothing). Why is that??
Blue -- but bright blue not baby blue!
Yellow, for sure!! Thanks so much for joining the Giveaway...I loved finding your blog!
I do not have enough of anything in my stash as I'm still pretty new and am trying super hard to not accumulate mystery bits but rather purchasing for projects. Lest that sound persnickety, let me assure you I have a lot of 'project' piles stashed around my sewing room! lol The colour I am always searching for is yellow!
Thank you for the chance to win this fabulous giveaway!!!
My dear sthas is small to begin with, but desperately needs some mroe yellow and aqua. You've got some great fabrics in the photos! Would love all of them!
annaliese(dot)kalista(at)gmail(dot)com
Purple. Definitely purple. I have exactly 2 pieces. So sad. Thank you for the yummy give-away!
Great giveaway! I always find myself buying blue fabrics... despite the fact that I have no blue in my house!
There is never enough red in my stash because I keep using it all up!!
I would say that orange is under represented in my stash. And it's my favourite colour! yikes!
I would have to say orange, just started to love this color lately and really need to fill in my stash with some!
Neat giveaway... my mind is already whirling with possibilities. The most underrepresented color in my stash is probably red... closely followed by yellow. I've been trying to add both of these colors, but it is hard when I am drawn to blue and green all the time!
I think that I may be just like you, I love orange, but I never have enough. I also love black and nevr have any of that either.
My mother is the one with the major stash (scraps) from more than 50 years of sewing. We've found that we have a deficit of yellow and orange quilting fabrics. Thanks for the opportunity to win some "good" stuff that isn't aged.
Every color is missing in my stash! Well that's just because I haven't managed to build a stash yet so I could really use some help :)
I have a lot of pink that I have trouble cutting into, a lot of blue and green that I have cut into, but not a lot of brown.
I wish I had more greens and blues. my little red, pink and orange box is overflowing! Thanks for the giveaway!
These strips are beautiful!! When I looked at my stash I couldn't believe I was low on green's...how did that happen???
Despite brown being in nearly every quilt I've made I don't have hardly any in my stash.
yellow is not represented in my stash. I use it up when I get it. :(
I am short on yellow and orange. I love those colors - I just don't have a lot of them in my stash!
Chanda
Orange, although I've collected more for an orange quilt.
definitely red-- every time I get some, I immediately use it up! thanks for the opportunity!
My stash is not very big (yet) but the most under-represented color would have to be red.
I probably have the least in orange - most of my fabrics are donated for our quilt ministry, and it seems that orange is not a highly donated fabric!
you make me look - and it is red and grey - strange because I love both colors in a quilt.
Ever since I had my daughter, my stash has taken a turn towards the pink and purple and I am seriously lacking in the blue department.
Yellow is the most underrepresented color in my stash; oh, that and gray... Thanks for the chance to win!
dstrong(at)bcps(dot)org
I would say Yellow is the colour most missing from my stash
I have INTENSLY DISLIKED Lime Green for most of my life, but it seems to be sneaking into my quilts, a little bit at a time and even "I" can see that it makes them POP! I have very little in my stash, but it's slowly slipping in here and there!...Candy
I don't have very much yellow in my stash.
there's not a lot of red going on in my stash...or purple for that matter!
Purple. I rarely buy purple fabrics because it's hard to find just the right shades.
I would definitely agree that i do not have very much yellow or purple. When ever i need yellow i seem to purchase what i need and quickly use the left overs!
I actually just went to check my stash so I could be honest! It's gray, with the runner up being purple. It's so hard to find purples I like. I dislike red purples and only like royals and blue purples, so it's tough.
I think that my least represented colour has got to be in the yellow and orange range. I have so much of the blues and greens and yellow and oragne work so well with them. Must leep this in mind.
I would say yellow - with green running a close second!
Green...I really don't like it and when I get some in a bundle of fabric I usually do a giveaway or swap to free my room of it. Maybe I should make a little quilt in green and see if it changes how I feel about it. :)
I would have to say that red is the fabric I have the least of. Thanks for the giveaway.
I don't have a lot of red in my stash. Thanks for the give away!
My stash is young and just barely starting to grow, but I'd say the color it most lacks is probably purple.
I would have to say pinks and purples are a little sparse in my stash. I think i just recently bought a little Kona because I realized I had absolutely nada resembling purple or lavendar in my stash. Don't know why....it's suh a pretty color, really!
I have many colors in my stash...The color I don't have many of is neutral colors...go figure.
I don't have many reds and hardly any oranges...I'd love to win these scraps!
Yellow, I don't have much yellow.
Probably yellows and oranges. I tend to have a lot in the range of greens to blues :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I thought that yellow would be least represented but I actually have a few. Orange was low but purple was really the least represented. LOL
Marie
I don't have any orange - but I really don't like orange much! Yellow is a color I do like, but don't have much fabric of.
starsandsunshineblog at gmail dot com
I think brown is what I am missing most!!!
I am so new to quilting, I don't really even have a stash!
oooh, those strips look fun! Yellow is definitely under-represented in my stash, and I love yellow for apparel or home dec, so not sure why!
Yellow would be the most underrepresented color in my stash, although it's growing on me...
I have all boys in the house. So I don't see a lot of pink fabric. What a shame!
I wish I had a stash!
I've used up almost all my yellow and gold! And I have very little black or white; I need to get more comfortable with contrast!
Purple...I love it but have mostly blues in my stash for some reason...cmccord@aol.com - keep on crafting Colleen
I would have to say brown and closely followed by purple. Thanks for the give away...I love reading your blog.
Blue...and I don't know why! I love orange too...started collecting orange fabric a while ago so I can make an orange quilt of some kind...maybe one of your patterns...!
I donot have enough reds,love the giveaway
I would have to say that it's pink that I have least of in my stash
I normally just buy for the project, but I think that I don't have any yellow in my stash.
Ooh, precuts! And so many pretty basics, too!
Red...I definitely don't have enough red in my stash.
I don't have enough orange either.
It makes me take a good look at my stash - not large - but keeps me dreaming of things to do and a long to-do list but anyways, it looks like I don't have even one fabric that is purple or any version there-of... violet, periwinkle, grape. Thanks for the opportunity to win some stash builders. srander2000@yahoo.com
The most under represented color in my stash is most definitely brown. Love the bright colors!
Hhhmm.... I'd have to say red... I like red but I can never find red prints that I like.....
I am missing red in my stash. I have pink galore, but red is missing out :)
I recently re-organized also - and purple is my FAVORITE color and of course there isnt much of it. do I buy and use it? do I not buy it? Who knows! =) Thanks for the giveaway!!
Hmmmm...just checked to verify and red is definitely understated in my stash! Thanks for the giveaway!
Megan
schacht.megan@gmail.com
I don't stash much (I know...*gasp*!) but nice reds are really hard for me to find, so that would have to be my pick!
I'd love to win some great new colors!

My stash is orange deficient. But I can always use more of every color. . .it's just an obsession.
Green is my very favorite color - it says "life" to me :) Thank you for the giveaway.
I don't have a lot of blue.
fmoore11589@comcast.net
Pink. It was not my favorite color until after my little girl was born. Therefore, I don't have much pink and sure need some more to add to my stash. Thanks for the chance.
I love lime green and it is very underrepresented in my stash. Where did all these burgandy fat quarters come from?
I probably could use some yellows and oranges...
I sadly don't have many greens. I don't know why because I love the color. Maybe the problem is that I use it first!
Yellow is definitely the one I have the least of. I don't know if I'm intimidated after hearing that it's a difficult color to incorporate into quilts, or if I just have a natural dislike for it.

I did just reorganize my stash! It looks so lovely all neat and tidy. I don't have very many yellows, but a little seems to go a long way in a design. What I really need more of are grays!
My blue pile in my stash is highly under-represented. In fact, it's down right pitful.....
Reds, pinks, yellows - I love blues, and darker colors and that's mostly what I have. Having a girl in a month and really need to branch out a bit. :) Thanks for the great giveaway!
definitely yellow. thanks for the opportunity!
I have very little greens and blues.
Surprisingly white is my most unrepresented. I bought some Kona Snow and Kona (another white) so that I would have something in the white line, but I would like to add a few white on white prints as sometimes they are just what is needed. Thanks for a chance at your giveaway.
Teal & blue-greens are strangely absent from my stash.
:(
I recently sorted for the Bottled Rainbows.
RP from BBC {at} gmail {dot} com
I think that pink might be the most under represented color because I have used all of my pink fabrics. Orange would be second.
Purple seems to be low in my supply.
Great giveaway.
WalkingMissMolly at gmail.com
I really don't like pink and purple, so tend to stay away from purchasing those colors, which is why I can't figure out how I have more of those than my favorite color orange!
I don't have many white on white or black on black. I have lots of blue and pink because they were the colors my girls loved.
What an amazing and generous giveaway! I would have to say, in terms of under represented colours in my stash it would be a toss up between purple, orange and red. not much of any of those at my house.
Not much yellow or orange in my stash.
I don't have much in the way of pink or orange.
Pink is the most under-represented fabric color in my stash. I used to dislike anything pink, but am starting to actually like pink. Especially when it is with gray, turquoise, or black...my favorite colors.
Those strips are wonderful! I just love purple, but have barely any in my stash. or in quilts I've made! Sounds like I need to shop, huh?! Thanks for the chance, and for all the inspiration your blog brings. You rock!
Oh goodness, what beautiful fabric! I don't have much of a stash, but I don't think I have any purple :)
I think yellow would be the most under represented color in my personal stash (or gray, if you count neutrals as 'colors':). Mostly I have gold in various tones, rather than yellow ... or yellow-orange (which I have lots of and like better;)
Linda
I am also lacking orange!
green and orange
I'm short on orange and yellow which I figured tonight as I was putting together a quilt for my daughter's teacher. She actually said to me - "in all that fabric you don't have any good yellow or orange - just what we need!"
I have absolutely no brown fabrics - I have seen some lovely quilts made with browns but am just not drawn to these fabrics when I'm shopping. Thanks for the fantastic giveaway.
Nevera red when i need it. Love it.
Blues are my favorites and I don't have nearly enough
I love green but it is hardly seen in my stash. :(
Thank you for the chance to enter your giveaway.
I will say I don't have gray, or much of it. Like to try the linen fabric out...
purple is pretty under represented in my stash but i think it's cause i don't like many shades of it.
phillandlesley @ msn.com
RED. I love it but finding the right shade in quilting cottons is hard. Looking forward to the new Sweetwater range.
I always use up my blues the most because i love them so much.
Thank you for the great giveaway. It's lovely.
atchisonsteph at gmail dot com
yellow is a very underrepresented color in my fabric stash. Thank you for the chance to win.
I need more purples, Julie. :) Can't wait for the new Jessica Levitt fabric.
I have a small stash but I do know I need more green
I'm completely lacking orange.
ellaredstar(at)gmail(dot)com
I'm still stash building but I've realized that red is pretty much nonexistent in my stash.
I'm just getting started in this business of quilting and gaining a "stash", so have to say that I don't have a lot of any color.
Browns and greys are seriously missing. I probably wouldn't have noticed but a friend asked for a grey wedding quilt & I had surprisingly little. Mind you, I have little of everything since I only recently began quilting the past few years. Thanks for the chance to enter - I almost swooned at your generosity.
shelleylynnvogelatgmaildotcom
I have realized that I go through favorite color phases. Right now I LOVE black and white - so there isn't a lot of it my stash any more - Lisa
I think black is something I don't have very much of. I don't use it often, but sometimes it's what is needed to change things up. I've always wanted to make a black and yellow quilt.
My stash is definitely undergoing a make over these days, but no matter what I do (nor how much Love I buy) I still have almost no purple. I just added a ton of orange, but still can't seem to find purples to suit my tastes!
I need more green (and also more solids in general, I go crazy buying up prints and then have nothing solid to complement).
Yellow is my favorite color and yet this color is the most underrepresented in my my stash collection!! Thanks for the giveaway...
I don't think I have ANY black and I have WAY too much pink!
Purple
Thank you for the giveaway!
Love your blog!
doodlesstudios@gmail.com
I am definitely short on orange. On the other hand, I have way too much blue (must be because I am the mother of two boys)!
I'd say purple is WAY under represented in my stash. Orange would be a close second.
My husbands favorite color is Purple, I think I have 2 pieces of purple. I am really liking gray and only have one FQ. Now I know what I need to buy when I do some stash purchasing.
Blues, definitely missing from my stash and I cannot understand why.
Thanks for the contest! RED is the color I need the most. I have hardly any~
Gray is the most under represented color in my stash followed by yellow. Must fix that!
Thanks for the great giveaway!!
Deborah
Funny enough...blue is my favorite color and it is underrepresented! I think because I always think I must have more of it!
It's been awhile since I visited my stash, but I recall there are very few browns. Hope to win the giveaway!
I don't think my comment went through so will try again...my favorite color is blue but I don't have much of it in my stash for some reason!
Oh my gosh! Yellow!! what happened to all my yellow??
oddly enough, since it's my favorite, purple.
:)
katz.gali(at)gmail.com
I recently finished the cutting for 2 projects using reds and blues and now have an absence of both in my stash.
I'm definitely a latecomer to the gray partay. I also lack navy, but maybe the quilting world lacks navy? Thanks for the eye candy!
Since I have all boys, I seem to have a lack of blue in my stash. I seem go through that color faster than anything.
thanks for the chance!
I don't have much pinks in my fabric stash even though I have all daughters! Also, green! My favorite color but I don't seem to pick many pattern with green.
Although I love the gray fabrics in quilts I see on blogs, I don't have a speck of it!
never have orange!
always a special trip to the
quilt shop if I need orange!
i love your blog! and great question . red! i love red stuff, and not a single piece of red fabric x.
I have very little yellow or orange in my stash (as in my wardrobe!) because I really don't like either! They obviously work well in some lines but I would never choose them by themselves!
Thanks for the great giveaway :)
LOL..same with me, my favorite colour is blue and guess what I don't have?
I have 2 colors that are not represented very much...and for 2 different reasons :) Yellow-i dont really like it. and green-no real reason, just have not needed to use it much. thank you for the chance~Amy B
Orange and Pink are quite shy in my stash.
green. no! orange! thanks for the giveaway!
I am fairly new to quilting and after accumulating tons of scrapbooking stuff I will never use I have decided to buy what I need as I go. That being said bold colors of polkadots make me happy and they are welcomed into my stash if they happen to end up there.
I'm having a baby girl in a few weeks, so pink is pretty dominant these days! So is grey... I love the way colors pop off of grey.
