I only use solids for my quilt tops...I do wholecloths. And I must confess I can't get enough from all the wonderful colors. The hand quilting stands out perfectly and nothing distracts your eyes from it.I also love the traditional Amish quilts: they look so clear and simple, but also vibrant. Just great.
Unfortunately it seems to be impossible to find the quality of solids I want to purchase here in Germany. Kona Cotton is available but I don't like them very much for my purposes. I am looking for a fabric with a higher thread count around 75 in each direction like the P&B fabrics had. But I don't find them here anymore.
