Well I love pink Its my banner my color...I am a 12 year survivor of breast cancer....Ps before cancer i hated pink...lol I now see how clean and pretty a color it is.... happyness04431@yahoo.com
Purple was my favorite color as a kid and I was teased about it. I might just be stubborn but I'm still taking a stand for PURPLE
I love orange - a little or a lot adds some pop to every quilt! Thank you for the giveaway!

My favorite color is yellow - bright and sunny
Red is my favorite. It is so dramatic in quilts. That is what drew me to John's cover quilt! ndfromsd at gmaildotcom
Green is my favorite color. It reminds me of outdoors, where you can find so many different colors and shades of green.
Purple has been my favorite color since I was young. It reminds me of my grandmother.
I love blue in quilts but I do love a red and white quilt. Just made a 1910 red and white vortex. I really like this book. I can't wait to start making a few of the quilts in here.
Red is my favorite color, but dark red like burgundy. And I have no idea why it is my favorite--maybe because it makes quilts look antique.
Purple has always been a favourite colour and you will find it in many of my quilts
I love all shades of blue. They are so soothing and calming.
I love using any shade of green in my quilts and projects--maybe because I'm 1st generation Irish married to a Kerryman?
Purple is my favorite color. Purple combines the calm stability of blue and the fierce energy of red. The color purple is often associated with royalty, nobility, luxury, power, and ambition. Purple also represents meanings of wealth, extravagance, creativity, wisdom, dignity, grandeur, devotion, peace, pride, mystery, independence, and magic.
I am the Queen of my castle. The wealth of my creativity is expressed with fabric and thread in every quilt I display with pride.
Purple is a favorite color. I remember when I was younger at work someone called me the 'lavender lady'. ;-D
Thanks for a chance to win.

I like green - it goes with everything. I always think about flowers and green stems as my analogy.
I love all colors - I paint and grow flowers. But the color purple has been a favorite since I was a small child. I feel calm when I look at it, and I think it looks good with every other color. Thanks for the chance to win this inspiring book!

My favorite color has been YELLOW since I was a kid. It must have been the color of the life-giving sun that intrigued me.
How can I have just one favorite color? I love most colors & especially the way they interact with each other. Complementary, Analogous, Triad, Split Complementary--they're all wonderful!
If I have to choose one, I guess I'd say blue--it was my favorite as a child & I'm still pretty partial to it. Especially in the blue green range--Turquoise!
I'm a blue girl myself--from the robin's egg blue of a winter sky to the navy of just before night.
Green is my favorite color. Not sure why, but it just makes me feel happy.
Thanks for a chance to win! gigiv13@gmail.com
Blues...shades of water & sky! :) No reason really...blue has just always been my favorite color...but the happy bright fun shades of blue.
Thank you for chance to win your Give-a-way!! This Book looks Amazing!! :)
Without a doubt, my favorite color is blue.... so many lovely shades to choose from!
My favorite color? Oh that's so hard! I love them all! But today if I had to pick, it would be purple, just something special about purple. Thanks for the chance to win! Excited to try the quilts out in this book!
My favorite color is teal because it goes with so many other colors and has a lovely feel to it in my mind.
I love purple especially with teal. I have always liked it - my fav dress that I made in Home Ec was deep purple (crimplene which now makes me feel very old when I think about it!!!) mumbird3(at)gmail(dot)com
Love, love, love purples. Always have. Got lots of teasing in high school.
I enjoy all shades of red because I find them warm and comforting.
I am really interested in getting better with sewing curved pieces and would love this book! My favorite color has always been purple. It just makes me happy and confident. My sewing room and laundry room is painted in purple. If I'm the only one to use those rooms, it may as well make me happy!
I love blue (my favorite combination is blue and green). It calms and relaxes me. I love it in fabric, clothing, and decorating (we have 3 rooms painted blue -- all different shades). melissagerber93@gmail.com
My favorite color is aqua. I think I like it so much because it reminds me of blue/green sea glass. It's my favorite crayon out of the crayola box, its a calming color and it can go with lots of other colors. edrin1932 (at) gmail (dot) com Thanks for the chance and for joining the hop.
Green, I think because it's so versatile. The newness of spring, or the beauty of the sunlight on the leaves, or the serenity of a shaded path...
Red is my favorite but I haven't met a color I didn't like avonbi@gmail.com
My favourite colour is blue. I've always liked it and often wear it. I like all shades from light to dark, from aqua blues to purple blues and all the shades in between.

Orange is my favorite color. I gravitated to it after having red at the top of my list for ages. Maybe orange is mellower, so as I've aged, so has my taste in color? richreword at yahoo dot com
My favorite color is blue. I am not sure why it is my favorite, perhaps because I find it to be a soothing color.
My favourite colour is teal. It's my favourite colour to wear and I'm drawn to quilts that are teal with a dash of orange here and there.
My favorite color is blue. There are so many different shades of blue that one can create a whole scrap quilt from one basic color. azborn at cableone dot net
