I am now a follower of Mandy. Then again when I was a kid ( 6 years old), I followed the wrong woman out of the grocery store, thinking it was my mom. Even got in her car.
ReplyDeleteYay! Congratulations. Smashing idea!!
ReplyDeleteI love the Kona Orchid color. I love how it "morphes" depending on the surronding colors. Gray, blue, a deep off-white....
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting another giveaway. Your quilt top by the way, is gorgeous. Thanks for posting pics!

ReplyDeleteSorry posted before I was finished...
ReplyDeleteAs I was trying to type, great give away this is! I don't have a favorite Kona solid because my LQS doesn't carry this range but I've been dying to get my hands on some for a while now. Just a nice piece of cream coloured solid to use for my embroidery blocks is what I would go for first.
Thanks for the chance to win some!

ReplyDeleteGillx
I love the aqua colour.
ReplyDeleteGill
Favorite or one most used? Favorite is probably any of the aquas, most used is Snow and White. I am looking into Ash and Charcoal though.
ReplyDeleteI already follow your blog.
ReplyDeleteI have only used the Kona Snow and the Kona Black for projects here. One length of Snow got in with something red and came out a bit pink :P Had to reorder the snow for that project since the pink just would not do....
ReplyDeleteChartreuse, Coal, White, Cactus, Khaki, Stone, Parsley I have all used and would use again. Have recently bought Bubble Gum, Pond, Artichoke, Celery, Zucchini and O D Green. H'mmm I may have a Kaufman solids addiction.
ReplyDeleteAlready following Mandy/Simply Solids
ReplyDeleteDitto you!
ReplyDeleteI had a little prior heads up about the shop, so I have already received a couple of meters of fabric in the post already from Simply Solids.
ReplyDeleteLove the fabric and the shops!
I love the Kona Baby Pink and the Aqua, too. It's hard to choose just one! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI like the Kona celery color.
ReplyDeleteSo this is lame, but my favorite Kona is white - just love the weight of it - so much better than other whites.
ReplyDeleteI went over to the Simply Solids blog too.
ReplyDeleteI love Kona snow but I am also partial to their greens. Thank you for the chance to win.

ReplyDeleteMy recent favorite Kona solid is Ash, but I also love white and charcoal.
ReplyDeleteMy recent favorite is Kona Coal as bright colors are such an amazing contrast to it, but I'm really into the very pale pastels as well.
ReplyDeleteMy top fave Kona colour is Coal, I just love it, and Charcoal, with every other colour! I haven't a colour card yet, and want one before I go buying up more yardage.
