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.
RJR Solids Quilt
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.
Blog Hop 2015 logo C small
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.  
RJR Solids Quilt
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 quilting to be too dense since the fabrics are incredibly soft and have a wonderful drape, so I quilted a diamond crosshatch.  The finished quilt has a nice, snuggly feel.

RJR has generously offered a giveaway of some of their beautiful solids.  
2015.03.20 C

the giveaway is now closed

To enter the giveaway just leave me a comment letting me know what you would make with these.  The giveaway is open to anyone in the US or Canada and cannot be shipped to PO Boxes.  The giveaway will be open until Monday March 23rd at 5pm PST.   

You can check out previous projects from the What Shade Are You? Blog Hop on the RJR Facebook page.

    Wow! Another gorgeous, inspiring quilt. I would make a baby quilt with all solids, something I've been thinking of doing for a while.

    Looks like there are a few great neutrals in this bundle! I would sneak them into any of the quilts I currently have bumping around in my brain. My stash is low on solids.
    Thanks!

    A few years ago my mom gave me a quilt top that was hers from her teenage years but that was in very sad shape. I painstakingly took apart the top sorted the resulting squares based on their prints.

    My plan is to turn her one twin size quilt top into two baby quilts (using the granny square block) for my brother and I to pass along to our (future) children.

    The muted tones in the solids would be a perfect match to the faded colors in the fabric harvested from my mother's old quilt top.
