«Oldest ‹Older 1001 – 1188 of 1188My fabric stash is quite small - I borrow a lot and beg scraps when I don't buy for a specific project so really all colours are needed... what i have tends to be blue and brown so everything else is lacking lol

I have pathetically little green (which is odd, I really do like green, but it's by far the tiniest part of my stash!)
I don't have as much yellow as I thought. I thought I had a lot more, but apparently not!
spcase at gmail dot com
Missing? One would think...nothing!
But there never seems to be enough green for me!
I don't seem to have a lot of blues and I love blue!
purple is actually very under-represented in my stash for some reason. I feel like I've worked with a lot of purple in the past so maybe I used it without really noticing but I just find that hard to believe. How could I not notice when I need to go buy more fabric?
I think I need a glass of wine to sort this out...wait, maybe that's how! ugh
I'm just starting out...I need to get polka dots!
Pink!
I wanted to join in the bottled rainbows quilt along and then realized, I am seriously lacking in orange, yellow, and purple (especially purple)! And I am normally drawn to softer/muted colors, but I am loving all of the bright colors I have been seeing lately and want to start collecting more staurated rainbow colors... and this giveaway would be perfect! Thank you for a chance to win!!
I usually buy the fabric I need for a project so I don't really have a stash. So it would have to be a little of everything.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I think the least represented are the purples and greys...but I'm beginning to see more projects with them and am liking them more and more.
I'm not really a pink person so I find myself trotting off to the fabric shop if ever I'm in a swap where my partner likes pink.
I recently organized my craft room and found out I don't have any reds :O
Thank you for such a great giveaway and the chance to win!!

I unfortunately don't have much of a stash yet so I would say I lack all the colors!
Yellow and I don't know why. I love yellow. Thanks for the chance.
I never buy any dark fabrics like black or dark blue. I have a baby girl so my stash is full of pinks and greens. Thanks for the competition and thanks for your site I really enjoy it. Syreeta
I don't have a whole lot of yellow.
i am sadly lacking in purple fabrics, don't know why, just am. thanks.
I have no yellows and that's my favorite color!
famflanary@yahoo.com
I need more Browns & neutrals! I recently got a custom order for one and could barely put it together!! lol!
i don't have enough grey - which is nuts because it's my favorite color.
I am probably short on purple - not my favourite colour - I don't even wear it!
That would be pink for me.
I'd say probably green. I'm a newbie quilter and don't have much of a stash yet, but what little is do have seems to be green-free :-)
I have a fair representation of all the major colors in my stash except for violet or purple. Thanks for the chance to win!
I desperately need purple!
Yellow is the most under-represented in my stash, mainly because it is not a colour which looks good on me or my girls. LOL.
Thanks for the chance!
debyeo at hotmail dot com
I don't really have a stash. But funny your example refers to orange. It is my son's favorite color and what I am looking at most for his first quilt.
Yellow, as i don't really like it!
I don't have any purple, in fact, I only have one scrap from a dress I made a few years ago. But I do like purple!
I'm sorely short on purple. Need more purple!
definitely purple...its tough to find a good shade of purple!
Ohhh these fabrics are making me salivate. ;) The colour I have the least of is purple, because up until recently I hated it, but I am beginning to warm to it.:D
Wow!! Over 1000 entries! Thanks for the chance to win these lovely strips!! Orange is definitely lacking in my stash!
Paulette
I have very little stash being a new quilter.Red is missing from my stash.
The color I am short of is RED.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Lvtig1 at gmail.com
Under-represented... it would be brown... I have so many bright colors, but the browns are seemingly absent:)
I have such a hard time finding reds that I like. They're always either too dark or too light or too orange or something, and so I never buy any!
Thank you for the chance to win an INCREDIBLE prize.
razberiswrl@gmail.com
white or off-white is definitely underrepresented in my stash.
rsgrandinetti@yahoo(DOT)com
I would say that green is the least color in my stash.
Green - I tend to go for red and blue fabrics.
Thanks for the opportunity to win.
I really don't have enough pink or red in my small stash! Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm just getting started sewing so I think all colors are underrepresented in my stash. If forced to pick, I would say pink since my daughter is in a princess stage and thinks everything should be pink.
I mace a red scrappy quilt about 2 years ago - I think I was turned off of reds for a bit after that as I noticed the other day I was sorely lacking!
Green! There are stuffed frogs I want to make and I have no green!
Wow, great fabrics! awesome giveaway! I need more girly colors - pinks and purples, I tend toward yellows, greens, and browns.
cwonitoy(at)shaw(dot)ca
okay, I'm so not sure if my comment made here (so I do apologize if you see more than this one!!!)....orange, the only orange I have is for a rag quilt for a soon to be baby girl!!
i have very little purple and yellow.......
I just started quilting last weekend, and since my favorite colors are green, turquoise, and pink, that's all I've bought so far. So basically I'm missing red, orange yellow, blue and purple! :) Thanks for your giveaway.
i do not have enough yellow or green! i recently discovered i have a TON of orange!!!
Nice! Need...more...yellow...
myyearinhaiku at gmail dot com
My stash needs more purple. I somehow rarely purchase purple fabric! Thanks for such a gorgeous prize. I'm crossing my fingers and toes!!!
eleanor(at)unfamiliarceiling(dot)com
This is awesome giveaway!! Orange is VERY lacking!! Need to build it up and Yellow!!
I am short on pink. I think because I use it all up first.
anna [at] 64colorbox [dot] com
Red is one of my favourite colours and i don't have much red in my fabric stash unfortunately. gorgeous giveaway
The color that I feel I'm short of is blacks and black prints. I enjoy using some blacks to highlight other colors!
I love blue but I have mostly brown in my stash.
I would have to say gray. Or polka dots- even though that's not a color, I think it is definitely underrepresented!
Green!! I just did a major sort/refold/fondle and there was no green section!
MarilynTes@gmail.com
I don't have a lot of reds even though I really like how they accent the colours I favour.
ikkinlala AT yahoo DOT ca
The most underrepresented colors are definitely green and yellow. I've got some oranges and lots of blues, but green and yellow, not so much. It's time to stock up, isn't it!
Reds! I love using reds in my sewing projects but don't ever get them or buy them often:(
chacoyaguayo{at}yahoo{dot}com
Thank you for the opportunity;)
HELP!!! I just started quilting - I have no stash...Is there a better welcome to the world-o-quilting then to win free stuff??
r.j.hellinger@gmail.com
oh.my.swoon.
please, please let fate be on my side!
i would love to win this.
white and neutrals, and solids are underrepresented in my stash.
thank you so much for the chance to win!
My stash definitely has not enough yellow fabrics - its a colour thats hard to find and match for me.
Wow, never thought about that, I don't have much yellow and I love yellow. thanks!
sharleen @ dragonflygems . com
Hmmm, I have no black. NONE. At all. That doesn't seem right??? :) Thanks for the chance!
I could pretty much copy your example post because orange is my favorite color, but I really want to make something with yellow and gray!
Blue. Definitely blue. Don't know why. I like it, I have sons, and yet no blue. Actually never thought about it till you asked the question. Now I feel like I gotta go shop :)
I love your blog! Thanks for the giveaway. I recently organized my fabrics and found that I am lacking in yellow and orange, as well as grey.
Wow, we all love you Julie...see how we all read your blog! 8-) Orange is my favorite color, too, but it is pretty well represented in my ever-growing stash. I would say that blue (with yellows and purples following closely) is the most neglected color in my stash. Poor blue is feeling blue....lol.
ohmygoodness, what an AMAZING giveaway! thank you so much, that's incredibly generous!
in my stash, it's purple, definitely. i adore purple, but it's really hard to find a real purple fabric! and it's not just in quilting cottons either - i recently decided that i should wear more purple, and it's hard to find purple apparel fabric too. i have lots of plums, aubergines, raspberries, violets and lavender, bur no real purples. maybe that's why i'm so in love with Melody Miller's new RSS - it has actual purple in it!
I want yellow...it is such a summery colour...
1097 comments - I don't stand a chance!!! Anyway, I love this blog and also sew mama sew blog and i find great inpiration here!
I'm like you, orange is my favorite and my stash is very short on that color. But, that could be because I use it more often. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome prize.
I don't have much of stash to notice that I one is under-represented. I think they could all use a little boost, but I did notice that I was craving grey...why? I don't know, I'm not making anything that needs grey. I think I want something to compliment the fabrics that I do have. Thanks for the most wonderful giveaway! :)
I don't have very much browns and blues in my stash.
Great Giveaway.
I have many colours but not enough black, I think black fabric in scrapquilts ist very beautiful.
There is a surprisingly small amount of apple green since that is one of my favourite colour. I'd love to add this rainbow to my collection.
i don't have a huge stash of fabric, but if i were to guess...i think i'm lacking in oranges and yellows...plenty of reds and pinks with my two girls.
White is my most underpresented colour. It is so versatile. Thanks for the giveaway !
If I had to hazard a guess, I would say that probably blue or red is most under-represented in my stash. But, I've never actually sorted it by color, either...
I know I have way too much pink, but I'm quite happy to have anything that's given to me! It all gets used, right?
I think that yellow is the most under represented color in my stash. Guess I should go shopping! lol
I love violet and lavender and lilac...But I don't have a single piece ..even a scrap in that color! yikes!
yellow and grey - and I am finding I love that combination. Also have little black and white.
I think I have the least amount of true blue & purple. thanks I love those metro circles!
Thank you for the chance to enter. I just what a great prize. I guess red is underrepresented in my stash.even though I love it. I have a lot of blue.and a lot of gingham
Definitely periwinkle and coral are lacking in my stash - just because I really want a quilt in those colors. Judy C
Green. I definitely need more!
delainaj36(at)gmail(dot)com
I don't have much blue, which is strange, I love it.
I'm missing purples, even though I love purple. Thanks for the giveaway!
Do you know I have no yellows
orange and red are the most under represented colors in my stash.- by far
I guess I am mostly lacking in orange. Love the rainbow of colors you are giving away-thanks!
Vanessa
I am actually lacking orange in my collection too. I seem to overlook that colour when I see fabrics. I always end up going towards blues.
Amanda
BRITBABY13@hotmail.com
The color most underrepresented in my stash is probably pink/purple.
Thank you for a chance to win!
zucchinisummer at gmail dot com
My stash is lacking in pinks. That is the only box that is not filled up. There are so many shades too.
I don't have much yellow! Probably because I don't wear it in real life, but it looks so good in quilts!
I have really little yellow even though i always feel i keep buying yellows! i guess, it is such a sunshine-y colour that i keep using them up for my projects! :)

I have never thought about it. All of my stash is out of sight and not organized so I don't see what's missing.
PURPLE! I went to try and make something with purples and I had a total of 5 FQ's. That was it. I am wanting to make a bottled rainbow quilt out of scraps, well, I can't have scraps if I don't ever use that color, huh? I will have to go looking through my friends scraps I guess!
it's definitely purple - especially lighter shades like lilac and lavender. i actually like purple, but don't use it in too many projects because it can seem too girly. thanks for the giveaway!
With all the different collections I have (colours and themes), I'm surprisingly low on blue!
I don't have much pink in my stash. I'm not much of a pink person. I have a ton of blue and green but not much red and orange despite my house being in those colors.
Seriously lacking in blue!
I don't have much pink --- in fact I have few pastel colors. Guess I like the bolder colors!
definitely orange and yellow. Just can't seem to get them in my stash!
hmmm, most underrepresented? definitely not pink ;-)
I think it's black which I find a challenge to work with.
Thanks for sharing!
I have very little yellow and no orange and I love both of these colors.
I don't have a whole lot of blue or purple. This giveaway looks fantastic! thanks for the chance. leahclaireh(at)gmail(dot)com
I am a new quilter. Just finished my first quilt. Have no stash! My favorite color is purple but any will do! Love your blog.
I don´t have enough yellow or gray, I would love to, but when I look for fabric, I always go with reds, pinks, etc.
I would have to say browns and taupes are the least represented at this time. I am into brights and primary colors at the moment. Lisa in Texas
Orange is DEFINITELY missing in my stash... I only have 2 orange fabrics! And I like orange... so it's odd.
I'm just starting out, so I guess you could say every color.
mrs.marcus2 at yahoo dot com
I never buy purple. I buys tons of pink and green, and lots and lots and lots of polka dots.
I'm a brand new sewer who so far has been making baby gifts out the wazoo for all my friends---So any color that isn't pink or blue is underrepresented in my stash!
Love these fabrics!
catherine(dot)alley(at)gmail(dot)com
As strange as it is... black is the most underrepresented color in my stash.
Yellow is the least represented in my stash, but I don't mind. I would rather pump up the pink section of my stash because that's a colour I like but have little of at the moment.
Yellow and orange are pretty small in my stash right now!
I have almost no yellow in my stash except for a few brights that I use in combo with my extensive black and white collection. I have nothing against yellow, it just doesn't 'speak' to me.
i just participated in a rainbow swap and found that I only have 2 pieces of brown fabric!
it's orange for me too. hard to find the right shades, not too neon, overpowering oranges.
It's actually solids in general that are underrepresented... beyond that, whites/neutrals.
What a fun giveaway! I love love love green, but find that I do not have much of it in my stash.
i have been handed down both of my grandmother's fabric collections recently. Yesterday, I was going through and realized that I don't have one piece of yellow fabric. I am now drooling over the idea of doing a bright yellow quilt. :o)
I don't have much of a stash yet as I'm just getting started. I don't have much orange at all. I like orange, but just don't see orange fabrics that I like...
Thanks for an awesome giveaway! I would love to win! :)
Green and yellow, they are my favorites but I just don't have nearly enough of them. Thanks for the chance to win!
okiedokiemama at yahoo dot com
I have a lot of grey and blue and yellow, but the color I have least is green. Interesting, huh?
This is a wonderful giveaway. Thank you!
Orange...love it but don't have a lot of it!
I don't have much of a stash, but I would say red is the most underrepresented color of what I have. I need more of every color!
Purple, even though it's my favorite color!
reneelasater(at)hotmail(dot)com
white, I have very little white, but that's because I love color!
Blue! There is a definite lack of blue in my stash...how funny, I never realised until you asked :)
I don't own a piece of aqua! I am still not sure what exact color it is! I don't have many oranges either! Thanks for the chance! umali666@yahoo.com
Green used to be my favorite color but I've migrated to blue the last few years (since having 2 boys!). I think it's time for more green though - many new fabrics in greens are catching my eye!
I have a hard time finding the right greens, so that is where my stash is lacking.
Lunachance
I love purple, but don't have any in my stash. Except for Crown Royal bags. I don't know where all those came from, I swear!
I don't have any yellows right now
Purple...I just don't use it that much!
Shawna
WoW! I seem to lack blue, but my stash is meager....this would help! Thanks!
3rdmargaret@gmail.com
I don't have hardly any white. I'm a color lover!
My stash is kind of all over the place, so it's a bit hard to be sure, but I think from looking around that it would be orange... Thanks for the chance to win!
I am just starting out with sewing and building my stash, so I'd say every color is under represented!
lydia(dot)hirschi(at)gmail(dot)com
Every color is under-represented in my stash except blue and green!
I just started re-learning to sew (hadn't done it since I was 13), and I really love blue, so all the fabric I've been buying so far is blue. This needs to change!
Yellow, I don't have much yellow. I actually don't have much orange, either LOL
Lights of every colour and that plays havoc with any quilting design! Thanks for a fabric boost of enormous proportions!
I have no red or pink. I always thought that I hated them, but suddenly I love them. I find that the longer I do crafty things, the more my mind is opened to all the possibilities.
yellow is lowest in mine
I am lacking lots of colours as I'm a fairly new sewer!
Reds and oranges!
I can never have enough greys!
I am just starting to build my stash so I am lacking in a lot of colors. I probably need more greens right now. Thanks for the giveaway and the chance to win!
Pink. I can never have enough pink. Lovely giveaway! Thanks for the chance to win!
mrsmchappell at gmail dot com
i hardly have any pink! katierosek@yahoo.com
Oh my, I've only just started, and as blue's my favourite colour, pretty much everything else is underrepresented right now lol
That roll of fabric looks fab :o)
I have no red! I have no idea why!
I have very little yellow in my stash. Thanks for the chance to win these fabulous fabrics!
I'm severely lacking in yellow and pink fabric! However, those two colours aren't my favourite so I don't entirely mind :P
jo.tee35 AT gmail DOT com
Yellow and orange are totally missing from my stash.
purple - I have no purple, but I never use it. The color I wish I had more of is orange. I use every little bit of it that I buy! Love your blog!
katieellsworth at hotmail dot com
I need orange and blues :)
Wow,this is amazing and so many comments>
Oh, this is so easy! Purple. It's my favorite color but I can never seem to find fabrics that I like with the color.
I don't have much orange. It's my favorite color but I end up doing most of my sewing for other people!
Oh, my goodness, girl... your rock the fabric... love it thanks so much
debbebennett at yahoo dot com
I see a LOT of green and not enough orange! or PINK!
Thanks!
Orange, and gray are the most underrepresented in my stash. Thanks
I hope its not too late!
I could have more orange and yellow
thanks
fabiennecote(at)hotmail(dot)com
I don't have a stash yet, I'm a newbie. But I like purple, pink and red.
helenhsin(at)yahoo(dot)com
I am a new sewer, so pretty much every color is underrepresented! Thanks for the chance to win!
I think purple and orange tie for being under represented, which is odd since those are my favorite colors! Thanks for the chance to win!
I don't have a lot of yellow in my stash- but I bought some yesterday!
I could always use more red.
I don't like orange, so have very little of it in my stash--just a fat quarter to make a fall quilt. Thanks for the chance to win!
yellow and orange are lacking in my stash!
I need more black and white. I always go for the pretty colors when shopping and forget the basics! Thanks for the chance to win!
I think purple is most underrepresented... but I am hoping to get some 1001 peeps in purple for a quilt so hopefully the scraps will help add to my purple stash!
Thanks for the chance :)
Definitely aqua and turquoise are missing in my stash! Thanks for the giveaway!
Cute strips... love all the colors.
I think I'm lacking blacks and whites. I made a beautiful black, white, and red quilt awhile back, using only pieces from my stash, so it's time to build it back up again! =)
I am like you I have the smallest amount of orange in my stash
I need more orange and yellow in my stash!
Don't have enough yellow or orange! Blue has too many and green does too! :) Thanks so much for doing this giveaway!
Hi there, I would pretty much have to quote you. I am desperate need of some orange!!
Thanks for the chance to win this great giveaway. :)
jansie(at)gmail(dot)com
I think green, which is pretty surprising to me since I have a ton of green stuff in my house.
