For my birthday my DH treated me to ordering some of that luscious Perfect Palette fabric from QKO. I also took advantage of some of their sale fabrics.
I have to tell you, my order came today and my fingers are in 7th heaven. I have never, ever felt fabric like this. It is so soft, smoothe and yet nice and firm... lol not thin or limp at all. I don't know the word I am looking for but it's just wonderful to touch.
And the colors and richness is amazing. I got some of the "Rock Candy" line and it takes my breath away too. The online photos cannot do it justice.
I am in no way affiliated with this shop but am just wowed by the quality of their fabrics.
Also, I ordered on the weekend and received my order on Tuesday. The service was prompt and very friendly.
My only complaint is that I am now ruined for the fabrics I am going to have to use for most of my quilting. LOL

I got the Sand that is the background in the red floral quilt QKO posted. Ah, that is what I fell in love with at first. :D

There are some wonderful lines of fabric that are just like running your fingers through the softest luxurious silky velvet but you know it is cotton. You will notice the difference in sewing with them versus the thinner fabrics too. I have a hard time cutting these up.

I found a website that shows the Perfect Palette fabric but all the distributors appear to be in Europe? Are they available in the States?

OK just found it:

LOL Are you part of the QKO shop? If so, I really envy you being able to play with all that wonderful stuff. I am blown away by it. LOL It said please share my experience with friends so that's all I did.
