What Shade Are You? Blog Hop & Giveaway
A few weeks ago RJR Fabrics contacted me to see if I was interested with working on a project using their solids. I checked out their colors and was pretty smitten so I said yes. And they exceeded my expectations. I mixed them in with some of the prints from Rashida Coleman Hale's new Mochi collection . Since Cotton + Steel is actually a division of RJR fabrics, the RJR solids coordinate perfectly with the collections. The RJR Cotton Supreme Solids have a great selection of pinks (I think good pinks are the hardest to find) and my favorite is actually the neutral-y brown Driftwood color that I used for the binding. It might not be cool to love brown, but I do, and Driftwood (color 297) will be filling a void in my stash. The quilt looks more complicated than it actually is: each of the diamonds is made up of 2 triangles (so there are no y-seams) and I cut the fabric with my favorite triangle ruler . I didn't want the quiltin...

Very cool.
