Quilt Market: Cotton + Steel

The ladies of Cotton + Steel are definitely the cool kids on campus...ahem...at Quilt Market. They even had the Premiere Schoolhouse before Market officially offered. I'm going to plod ahead because I know you are dying in suspense, waiting to see their upcoming lines.
I'll let you hear an explanation of the collections from those who know best. 

How about I follow that up with some eye candy from the Market booth?.

Do you have a favorite? 
Also, Cotton+Steel is making all kinds of substrates now: rayon, double-gauze, canvas, lawn, etc. What do you recommend making with these? Any advice for getting them to behave in a quilt? Which would you consider to be strictly for clothing?

    Thanks for sharing all the wonders from Market! I had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend Market in Houston last October and seeing your posts helps me relive fond memories and envision myself surrounded once again by all the color and creativity.

    I actually ordered some of the rayon substrate to make a skirt from the Rifle collection, thanks to the swatch pack they gave us. Ditto on a piece of canvas. The rest were cottons, as they are more workable for me. Great write-up!
