This is my contribution to the Black and White Challenge. As with most of my quilts, it grew like Topsey. The three leaf panels are my very first lino prints!
Hopefuly this detail shot will show the small continuous leaf pattern I used to quilt the back ground with. I hope you like it!
I was one of the first to sign up for this challenge. Did I get any black and white and turqouise done? nooooooooooo, at least not yet! but I did get this sweet little tote done from a online tutorial from one of my favorite bloggers! Happy Zombie they are made from 3 FQs and are very quick to make up! This little tote is black and white and bits of yellow. the yellow is the centers of the daiseys .

Hello everyone! I went to a Quilt Show in Georgia this weekend and so much inspiration! I took a few pictures of the Black and White quilts entered. More pictures of the other quilts over at my blog.
At long last I've started my B&W challenge project. After a lot of web surfing, magazine browsing and doodleing, and considering my limited stash of black and white fabrics I've decided on a wonky block format for a lap quilt / living room throw. One evening earlier this week I quickly pieced together seven of the centre panels. I have to say that this is a quick and economical block to use us a limited selection of fabrics for a decent sized top. Once the black sashing is added to each centre panel and the blocks squared up to 12.5" the minimum sized quilt will be about 36" x 48" (3x4 blocks). Above are half the blocks pieced together ready for batting/backing, as I propose to 'quilt as you go' each half of the top, but need to firstly use some of the remaining fabrics for a 'coin' stirp across the backing panel - just to zest it up a bit.
Here are the other six blocks ready to be sashed up.
Well I knows this is not the best picture but FINALLY got this quilt almost done i will take some more this week .this quilt has got some story to,...have a good week...
It's not the black and white quilt I intended for this challenge...but I'm working on a lovely one that certainly qualifies...Love this color combination!I've blogged about here.
