  3. My favorite combo – lately I’ve been drawn to Peach and Navy – in all combinations. And yes this giveaway is drool worthy!

  4. Aque on Grey! What I would be more excited to win 30 spools or all that fabric. I’d definitely be in color heaven!

  5. WOW! What an amazing and generous giveaway!! I n-e-e-e-e-d solids and I n-e-e-e-e-d Aurifill! I have lots of favorite colors. In fact, every color in this bundle and thread set is my favorite! I use a lot of Kona Snow and Black, but my favorite colors depend on the season. Heading full force into Christmas sewing, my favorites are reds (more toward the darker reds than the brighter or lighter reds) and golds, and of course the Aurifill threads to match. If I knew where to find the names of the colors of the fabrics and the treads, I would be happy be much more specific.

  6. I love white aurfil thread as it is what I use most and couldn’t live without it. There are too many colors I love to pick just one fabric color!

  7. Thank you both for offering this giveaway Two classic stand-out brands teaming up… awesome!!!! Beautiful solids, beautiful threads, what more could a sewist want???

  10. I like Kona Snow, much prefer it to a harsh white and it works well with any Aurifil colour depending on the project. x

  12. I make colorful baby quilts for friends and family. Lately, the child’s name is appliquéd and satin stitched on the top border. The addition of this wonderful collection of fabrics and threads would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for the opportunity to win this wonderful prize.

  13. Really,you are asking me to pick one…..I love them all…and with the thread to contrast, which I love doing or just to match, which I do not do much of….the fabrics shine……Thank you for a great giveaway……..

  14. My favorite Kona colors are eggshell, champagne,pond and azure. I use Aurifil cream the most but just picked up a 5 pack that has the most amazing colors of red, orange,green, gold and a wonderful variegated blue that I’m going to have to get more of.

  19. What a fantastic giveaway! I love the new Kona solids and aurifil! I don’t have a favorite combo, but I use white thread the most. I did just order an assorted pack of thread though, so when that comes I’ll have to see what I like the best! I love the shades of gray that Kona has come out with as well as peach. Maybe I should find some peach thread and use it on a gray fabric! =) Thanks for the chance to win!

  31. I use Kona snow alllll the time. I’ve only just started using Aurifil so I’ve only tried the neutral colors, white, tan, grey and black. I’d LOVE to try some of the beautiful colors. I think a purple on grey would be beautiful.

  33. I like Kona Green and Aurifil pink together. Thanks for this awesome giveaway Robert Kaufman Fabrics, and happy happy 30th anniversary.

  34. I have not used Aurifil thread, but I love all of the Kona solids and the way they seem to all match with each other no matter which colors are paired.

  35. There are so many beautiful colors they all look great together! I personally love Kona Red with Aurifil Snow White or Kona White with Aurifil Red. This is a wonderful giveaway and being new to quilting this would be an exceptional prize to win. 🙂

  39. Such beautiful Fabrics and Thread! I use both in my quilting on a daily basis. Would love to add to my collection

  46. I love the light gray Kona solid and matching gray Aurifil thread. Thanks for the awesome giveaway!! I hope I win!

  48. I have in my hand Aurifil 5016 which is an Olive green and it would stand out on a Kona solid black fabric.

  49. Hot pink fabric with lime green thread. but really they are all beautiful, and who wouldn’t want to be a winner.

  50. I love the bright rose colors and the blues! Can’t get enough of those colors. Then you have got to throw in some greens and yellows and oranges…just want all of them to caress and dream on, then we’ll get down to the cutting and sewing some fabulous baby quilts for 4 little granddaughters.

  51. I love Kona gray and Aurifil white. What can I say, I love neutrals because they make the colors pop.

  52. Love the grey krona cotton and my favorite Aurifil thread, now that is really hard but I guess any of your purple shades would be my choice or a deep red yum.

  53. I don’t have a favorite combo. I just love to play and see what inspires me. I’m loving all the new colors! Great giveaway!

  54. It’s impossible to pick one combination. It must be a trick question! ALL of the threads and fabrics are beautiful and I would love to win.

  55. I like Kona Snow and always use Aurifil light gray thread for piecing my quilts and sewing garments.

  56. My favorite Kona color is “Snow” (I use it the most!) but I also love and use many others! So versatile! I have used the more neutral Aurifil thread colors currently (like Natural White or Lt Grey) because I use it for piecing but would love to try some of the other colors for embroidery/applique! Favorite Aurifil is currently Natural White.

  57. Wow! Super cool! Love the solids! Hard to pick my fav…maybe the greys. Auriful is the best thread. I have a number of spools but always need more.

  58. My Miss about to turn 9 next week thinks this would be an awesome birthday gift next week! What an amazing giveaway, thank you for the opportunity to win.

  59. I am making a Tardis quilt for my son and using Kona white and two different blues and my very first spool of Aurofil thread. It is also a wonderful blue. I’ve never had thread go so smoothly through my machine.

  60. Am pretty new to all the Quilting things…but have used Kona Pewter, and havewn’t used Aurifil thread before. The Kona colors are alllll Awesome tho…and think the sets the Aurifil comes in is such a cool idea! Both are on my Wish List too 🙂

  63. I use the very light grey and off white all the time to piece. No other thread compares. It is so hard to choose one favorite of Robert Kaufman as there are so many choices. The quality is sublime.

  64. I have not had the change to use any Auifil thread yet but I plan too! All of the new fabrics from Robert and Kona! It’s so hard to choose a favorite!

  65. What yummy, yummy colors! You sure chose some that are on my “have to have” list! Congratulations on your 30th anniversary! Quite an accomplishment!

  66. Love the new colours, Limestone or Cobblestone in Kona are my choice, because choosing just one is too hard. Having all 18 new Aurifil threads I can see that some of the new greys named or not named yet will beautifully with this fabric.

  67. Totally COOL! Love the colors and would love to win threads and fabric bundles. What a great quilt that would make. Thanks!

  68. There isn’t a color I don’t like. It’s like asking you which one of your children should you abandon. Don’t make me choose!!! I can’t do it.

  69. My favorite combination is Aurifil 4663 paired with Kona Bahama Blue as the Aurifil is variegated the stitching on the fabric is lovely.

  70. Kona grey and aqua Aurifil sound like an awesome combination! I’ve yet to try the aurifil thread. Maybe this will be my chance! Thank you for all the beautiful Kona fabrics!

  71. Favorites….changing all the time. But today, I’m loving that robin’s egg blue. Thanks for this great opportunity.

  72. I’m writing this is the bath so don’t have the exact names but I had great results with a teal kona quilted (by machine) with a variegated baby blue in 12wt cotton. It gave a beautiful result which I turned into a tote for my daughters friend x

  73. Those blues. I must have the blue ones. All the blue ones. 😀 Are you feeling my theme here? I would love to have all of these and I know just what I’d do with them too!

  75. I have a variegated aurifil: Limon di Monterosso (4658) that I have almost used up – I especially liked it on a warm gray backing that I used, something like the new Limestone Taupe Kona.

  76. Cherry Pink/Hot Pink/ Cerise whatever you call it that deep delicious passionate colour just says YES to me! Paired with a medium gray or an ink navy thread? YUMMMM!

  77. How do you pick one color combination from 32/30 choices. Having said that, kind of love bright green, citrus green with turquoise/aqua/peacock. But seriously, how could you go wrong with color?color?color? Yum! Pick me! Please!

  85. What an awesome give-away! Beautiful fabrics (all of them!) and coordinating threads! Who can choose!?!?

  94. I love all RK Konas, but school bus is my top fav. I love it paired with any Aurifil of the Caribbean Dreams bundle. Thank you for this great chance!

  95. Apart from a couple of bindings I’ve only used white kona, and I’ve never used Aurifil. I usually go for a white or cream thread, though because it goes with everything.

  96. I never owned Kona solids until now! But I really love the whole line! My favourite would probably be some darker grey with matching Aurifil in blue tones.
