In March, I received a package of Oakshott cotton fabric in Colourshotts!
the colors are simply luscious!
And the texture equally as amazing.
They have a wonderful crispness...
I just couldn't wait to cut into these! And I had the perfect project in mind. I wanted to combine the Oakshotts with a very lovely understated Japanese fabric in a baby size quilt. The quilt was inspired by a Japanese creation I pinned on Pinterest {oh Pinterest...you are an irresistible pleasure}
The color of the colourshott cotton is so incredible and intense...I like the combination with another more subdued cotton.
Irregular crosses float on this white background.
The binding is a yarn dyed Essex linen.
And, as I usually do, I was eager to wash this one after it was bound! I really wanted to see how the Oakshotts looked after a wash and dry!
YUMMY!
They really looked amazing!
For the backing I used the black from Boo Crew ;)
I love this fabric...such a good one for just about any project!
And a little embroidered label.
I hope you will hop over to Oakshott Fabrics and check them out!
If you haven't tried Oakshott cotton....I hope you have an opportunity soon. They do not disappoint....wonderful in every way!
happy thursday!
