I love purple.
This one is a little intense, but add a little softness and I love it.

Purple is my favorite color no matter what shade.

One of the better colors they have had as Color of the Year.
I have to say I laugh at their description of the color. The hype for it is truly funny. "takes our awareness and potential to a higher level" . um, ok, lol

So silly - next year it will be something else and I'd still be working or (Horror!) last years colors - how terrible!!
There sees to be a race with fabric collections, the "right" colors, what "goes", bigger and better, newer and more modern, when the whole tradition of quilting is using what we have. I'm not buying into it.

These comments make me happy and I have to laugh a little bit too.
Some people love Purple, some people do not like purple so much.
I am indifferent, but now I will focus on all of the beauty that this color represents and find it in things around me
I have a small collection of purple/lavender /violet. the fabrics that I have are lovely

Finally! Pantone has put out a color that doesn't turn my stomach. This one's great, and I can see using this color as a main or supporting color in a bed quilt or art quilt.

I remember when Crayola came out with this color back in the late 40's or early 50's. It immediately became my favorite and purples of all hues and shades have remained favorites. Thanks Pantone! Oddly enough I don't have much in my quilts.

One of my favorite colors. I am so glad it is this year's color.

Purple is also a color for royalty.
