Let's begin with yellow.
Honey use and production has a long and varied history. In many cultures, honey has associations that go beyond its use as a food. Honey is frequently used as a talisman and symbol of sweetness.:

I have been thinking about a yellow quilt for ages, though I've done nothing about it yet. These are so cheerful and just right for this time of year.
