The Intrepid Thread is generously offering this gorgeous custom bundle of tangerine, aqua & teal, and gray & black fabrics to one of my readers. That's nine Fat Quarters of these gorgeous designs!!! You can find this bundle in their shop right here, available in both fat quarter and half yard cuts. This bundle was inspired after Julie saw my Color Love post a couple weeks back.
