Considering Kona cotton is usually the fabric I use most and stash, it's always fun to see what the new Kona Color of the Year will be. Just a few days ago, it was announced that the new limited edition color is NOCTURNE, a rich deep purple!
Browse through the lookbook, or the Kona IG feed @konacotton, and you'll see several samples of quilts made with Nocturne. I'm definitely a fan, and at some point will be ordering a bit to incorporate into my making for next year. Just for fun.
This is a really lovely shade (and it makes me sad it won't be a permanent addition to their lineup) that seems much less controversial than the Pantone color!

ReplyDeleteNocturne is a gorgeous color and fits well into any color line up. Yey for Kona Cottons!
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see how quiltmakers use both Kona's Nocture and Pantone's Mocha Mousse together . . . a lot of midnight snacks?
ReplyDeleteHooray! It's not a shade of brown.
ReplyDeletehaha. Definitely not!
DeleteOoh, I can see that as a background.
