Polka Dot Tea stock a huge range of Cotton Couture (they have around 45 different colours in stock), including several to-die-for bundles. I bought their Spring Sampler bundle a few months ago and the colours are just amazing (and my son is continually harassing me to make him a rainbow quilt using them. It is on my to do list.) All the colours they stock are available as yardage, and Danielle and Jeanette are more than happy to set up a custom listing if you want something specific.
I have an amazing giveaway sponsored by Polka Dot Tea to offer you today - this gorgeous roll-up of blue Cotton Couture. Blue is one of my favorite colours - and this collection doesn't disappoint. It ranges from green/blue through blue into blue/violet hues. These photos don't do it justice.
The roll up includes 18 5" strips of fabric. There are so many things you could do with these - a simple strip quilt, chop it into charm squares, make them into HSTs or HRTs - the possibilities are endless. Mine is destined to become a baby quilt for an upcoming nephew (possibly along the lines of the raindrop quilt I made for the Umbrella Prints challenge). If you're an Aussie, they would also be the perfect starting point for the AQC challenge for next year (which is True Blue).
The giveaway is open to everyone. To enter, just leave me a comment - maybe let me know what you think you'd make with them! For a second entry, sign up to receive the Polka Dot Tea newsletter to keep up to date with what's new in store (there are lots of gorgeous fabrics arriving over the next few weeks!) and leave a second comment letting me know you've signed up.
This giveaway will close next Monday 15th December at 8pm AEST, and Mr Random will draw the winner. Please make sure to leave your email address if you're a no-reply commenter - if I can't contact you I will redraw.
Good luck!
xx Jess

ReplyDeleteHi Jess
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics are beautiful. I have recently purchased EQ7 and I am having lots of fun designing quilts that I will never make. If I won this fabric, I would design a quilt and make it for real. What fun!
I'm excited to find you are in Australia too.
Thanks Judy

ReplyDeleteBlue is my favorite! I'd pair it with a light grey Essex.
ReplyDeleteI love Cotton Couture, I use them quite often. This will go straight to my stash as I like to mix solid with prints in my quilts. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI too love these solids. So soft - thanks so much for the give away.
ReplyDeleteI did enjoy working with Cotton Couture, and would buy more of it after seeing that two different bundles and orders of the same color actually had the same color (unlike Kona, their dye lots are so inconsistent!)
ReplyDeleteI love those blues! The cotton couture has such a soft hand it's great for baby quilts
ReplyDeleteHmm, maybe a pillow-orsix! Lol Thanks for the great giveaway! vickise at gmail dot com

I Love these blues. I'm trying to find the right blue and greens to make a king sized quilt for my bed. Ack. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI used Cotton Couture for my Super Mario Brothers Quilt a few years ago and it was fantastic.

Love those blues. Just bought my first Cotton Couture also...beautiful colors. I would make a mini-quilt, Mondrian style--a study in blue.
ReplyDeleteI would make some wonderful pillows with them if I won
ReplyDeleteI want to make an Amish inspired quilt!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty solids! Would make a toddler size quilt for my grandson!

They would look great in a stacked coins quilt!
ReplyDeleteI love blue! I'm thinking someything with strips of fabric arranged from light to dark for an ombré effect.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking at making Tesselation by Allison Glass and I think this would be AWESOME for that project
ReplyDeleteOh what yummy blues--perfect for my fancy rail fence quilt to be made in the New Year...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteThose colors are delicious. I would love to make a quilt with those blues swirling around. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteLove fabrics with a soft hand. Those rainbow bundles are yummy colors. I have an idea swimming in my head for a sea glass quilt. And blue is my favorite color so I hope to win that beautiful bundle. Cindy/ bluemoonstencils at yahoo dot com
ReplyDeleteI have never used Cotton Couture before. I have a friend who has just welcomed a baby boy into their family so this bundle would make a gorgeous quilt for him.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you re how beautiful those Cotton Couture fabrics are. So soft and slightly shiny, a bit like silk. I recently bought 3 yards of the Ocean color as a solid for a quilt with lots of organics but then I decided that the materials were too different. So this bundle would be perfect for making a quilt with my yardage. Since I love sewing curves right now, I'd try to make some water-like waves in various shades of blue against the teal background.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the give-away and I've also subscribed to the newsletter.
What lovely looking colors. Not sure what I would make with those lovely colors.

ReplyDeleteI am a new quilter. These wonderful fabric inspired me a lot. Thank you for sharing. ( my email: abby64sam@gmail.com)

I haven't tried the cotton couture solids before. I think they'd make an awesome storm at sea quilt (perhaps a mini, let's be realistic)
ReplyDeleteI would like to make a log cabin quilt with 1/4 in logs. In particular a Modern log cabin that I saw in a Modern Amish show at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles.

ReplyDeleteLove the colors!!!!! I would definately put these colors in a quilt!!!!!! sonjasmith76@yahoo.com

ReplyDeleteWow, these are gorgeous! My sister loves anything blue so if I could get my hands on these beauties, I'd probably turn them into a belated Christmas gift for her :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours! I think I would make some cushions to go with the blue and white quilt I'm making for my mam (and have been making for about three years!).
ReplyDeleteI get their newsletter.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous maybe I could put them with my aghandcrafted!!!
ReplyDeletelovely colors and easy on the eye and they look like you want to hug them!
ReplyDeleteHello Jess,
ReplyDeleteI'd love to quilt some chair pad covers to go w/sea shore & sea shell décor. I've never made 'em before so this bundle just might turn into pillow covers instead.
Thank you so much.
Thanks for the giveaway Jess. I would most definitely use those colours to make a quilt for my son. Perhaps just a basic strip one, then perhaps back it in minky like I've done for my girls as the bottom of Australia is cold more than hot. Rach C
ReplyDeleteNot sure what I'd make. One of my goals for the coming year is to venture into working with solids alone, and this will be a nice contribution to my supply list.

ReplyDeleteI am allergic to solids but I try to add a bit to every project I make (easing myself into it). I've had the (solid) fabric for a Jaybird Quilt pattern for MONTHS and I'm determined it will be my next project once I finish the two I'm working on. Thanks for the chance to win.
