Want a custom version of this listing? Send me an Etsy message. All steps of this shade range are available as individual fat quarters, or mix and match with the shade levels you need. It can be difficult to determine the exact color of the fabric due to monitor settings. If you have fabric you want to match I will be happy to try to work with you to find the shade you need.
Each piece of fabric has been dyed with my own recipe of Procion MX dyes, and washed according to the manufacturer's instructions. After multiple hot washes to remove the excess dye, each piece is steam ironed on white muslin to check for color fastness under normal piecing or fusing conditions. Cold wash recommended. Use of a color catcher is advised if using a hot wash.
Time Frame:
Fabric is custom dyed upon ordering. Store policy is 2 week production time prior to shipping. Rush orders cannot be accepted. If fabric is in stock it will ship sooner.

Welcome to Color Connexion, home of one of a kind quilt fabric! Artisan hand dyed 100% cotton. Gradients, shibori, ice dyes, stash packs, ombre and more.
Meet the Maker
My passion for color and quilting gave rise to Color Connexion, home of 100% cotton hand dyed fabric, suitable for quilting and crafting. I spend far too much time playing with fabric and dye, and too little time quilting, but it's a good problem to have! Retired from the rat race, I now hang out with the rainbow daily. My fabrics mostly find their way into quilts, but they have also been used for cosplay costumes, dance costumes, and sculptures! I am always amazed by the fabulous and creative ways people use my fabric!
My regular offerings are ombre cotton gradients in a range of values of the same color. These are perfect for bargello and modern quilt projects, as well as piecing and applique. In my Colorwash gradients I let colors out to play together; they blend, swirl and make new secondary colors. These work well in a wide range of applications as each piece has multiple color ranges. Stash packs offer unique sets of coordinating fabrics. I also offer small packs for applique projects. When I have time I make arashi shibori and ice dyed fabric, as well as tie dyed fat quarters.

All fabrics are dyed with Procion MX dyes because these dyes bond with the fabric, unlike fabric paints. Fabric looks vibrant year after year. Fabric goes through multiple hot washes to remove unbonded dye so fabric is colorfast in cold water. Fabric comes to you preshrunk and ready to accept any iron on interfacing, without the interference of finishes or sizing. To avoid triggering those with allergies, fabric has no scent and I use wool dryer balls, not dryer sheets.

FAQ
1. Does the fabric fade?
I use Procion MX dyes which bond with the fabric and are color fast. However, all fabric will fade if constantly exposed to direct sunlight.
2. How do I wash hand dyed fabric?
Your fabric is preshrunk due to the multiple hot washes it has gone through to remove the excess dye. Fabric is color fast in a cold wash. If you use hot water, a Colorcatcher is recommended.
3. Do you offer discounts?
Sign up for my (infrequent) newsletter at colorconnexion@gmail.com to hear the latest about sales and special offers.
4. Is your studio a smoke free zone?
Sure is!
5. Do you have pets?
I have 2 furry overlords.
6. Do you use scented detergent?
I am aware that some people have allergies. I do not use scented detergents, or fabric softener sheets on my hand dyed fabric. Fabric is washed in Dawn dishwashing soap and I use wool dryer balls.
7. Do you make all the fabric yourself?
I do, and I have the callouses to prove it...
8. Do you do custom orders?
I do. I am happy to work with customers to try to bring their vision to life!
9. Why do I have to wait 2 weeks for some of your fabric?
Color wash gradients, stash packs and ice dyes are listed when they are already made, and will ship within 2-5 business days. Stepped gradients are dyed to order because I offer a wide range of colors and cannot keep them all in stock. Unfortunately there is no magic wand for the dyeing process. Once the dye has been applied, fabric must sit for 24 hours to allow the dye to bond chemically with the fabric. Then begins the first of many wash outs, including an overnight soak. To keep my sanity and my body intact, there is a 2 week production time on all gradient bundles. If fabric is in stock it will ship sooner. If you have a deadline, let me know upfront and I can tell you what the time line will be for your order.
