  1. I think the reason the new quilts are looking more modern is that the fabric companies are producing fabrics for MODERN QUILTERS … as that is the fabric that is selling mostly…. you no longer see the muted browns and creams in as large amounts … I think even the repro fabrics are lighter, brighter color pallets.

    The designers are much younger … the older designers have retired or also switched to the more contemporary modern bright fabrics… a lot of complementary color ways are in productions…. JUST MY OPINION…
