I like bright! I would use the aquas and greens in a quilt I've already begun. So many lines are using these colors, aren't they? Fun!

grendelskin said...

Oh, yum! I keep thinking of ORBC, maybe round 1 again for this line? Wouldn't that be sweet? No wait, round 2 would look terrific too ...no wait ...

Michele said...

Love that line! I'm thinking some wild hexagons.

Hmmm, when I posted under my typepad, it gave me numbers and letters for my name. Should have been Cindy. I'll post this one under google. Maybe that will work.

Great giveaway! Beautiful colors like this look especially appealing on dreary winter days!

yarnivorous said...

Oh I so want that fabric! I've been living in California and have to go home to Oz, which isn't so bad but there's a lot less crafty stuff there. A Californian Dreamin quilt would remind me of places I've been here.
I'm about to become a follower too :-)

Jonathan said...

Yummy! I would make a quilt out of it, maybe the zig zag one again. I'm just finishing my first zig zag and it went together so fast!

You are way too generous. My oldest boy turns 9 on the 8th so maybe that will bring me luck. Those would make a great bright quilt to get me through the grey winter.

Jo said...

since making the wonky log with brights, I am now very much into them and would love to make a bright bag to take to Sunny South Africa on my hols in February, and the California Deramin would certainly look great. If you need to contact me perhaps you could do it with flickr mail -- not a computer whizz yet.

I would use them for a coin quilt, a bag with some coordinating zippered little bags, or put some in hoops on the wall in my "sewing" room!

Debbie aka Marblesbestfriend said...

Oh, I love the bright, happy colors in these fabrics! They would be perfect for a stroller quilt for a new little niece who (I've been told) was conceived on a vacation trip to California!
