  10. I don't know that I have a favorite color to quilt with. I like bright colors best--but I'm new enough to quilting and I like all colors so I just don't have one favorite. :) I am quite taken with how white pops colors sometimes however.

  33. Great giveaway! Thank you for the chance to win.

    My favorite color to quilt with? Whatever I'm working with at the moment (lol). I don't think there is a color I don't like. I love to put colors together that make each other sing. Color makes me happy. And I love things in rainbow order (which is why I think your FQ buncle of chevrons really speaks to me). That always makes me happy.
