ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely colors....hmmm I think everyone has said that in their comment, but it's true...so bright and happy! I have some nice patterned quilting fabrics, but don't purchase solids until I need them so winning this would be so sweet!
ReplyDeleteDon't know if I would join along or not. I have a new quilt pattern that's calling my name and that I have to start!
I follow the intrepid thread on FB and in the world of blogs :)
ReplyDeleteAs always, would follow you anywhere ;) and thus do so here and on FB!
ReplyDeleteSince I'm not a quilter I would be adding them to my stash to use when I make bags/totes (my favorite thing to sew right now)
ReplyDeleteI'm a follower too.
ReplyDeleteI am not yet ready to tackle the challenge but am new to seeing the possibilities of solids in my quilting and so would welcome the chance to play with these beauties--thanks for the giveaway--
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I'm entering the challenge as it is in itself a challenge with that little time I have to sew, but surely I would think seriously about it with those beautiful colours.

ReplyDeleteI guess I'm a little slow - this is the 1st I've heard about the QuiltCon Block Challenge. I am a sucker for a good challenge and with these fabrics I could attempt a block
ReplyDeleteI would love to do some sort of rainbow quilt, maybe match each solid with a print.
