Black and white day............ from Exuberant Color

The black and white fabrics needed to be in a place where I could see them better. They were in a hard to reach place before and had become very unorganized.

Top shelf left to right: stripes and checks/plaids (and a few graphic prints); large prints; dots, spots and circles; large yardage.

Second shelf: Positive/negative (black with white and white with black, the same print); miscellaneous; miscelaneous; animal print (mostly zebra and giraffe).

What isn't shown here: a pile of black and whites that read as gray (approximately equal amounts of black and white in the print ...

In Celebration of Trees from The Snarky Quilter

Every spring I am delighted to watch the trees behind my house green up. I want to nibble that delicate tender green as it begins with the weedy understory and creeps up the taller trees. I wait for the old apple tree and the wild dogwoods in the middle of the woods to bloom. And I celebrate the tulip poplar that has taken root at the verge of the back lawn.

However, before all the leafing out began I took many photos of tree trunks and logs that I encountered along the tow path, and played with them in Photoshop ...

Red, Black and White 11, 12 from Virtual Quilter

I am trying to break away from pink, purple and green!

This project file has been sitting around being ignored for two years, probably because it is in colors I wouldn’t want to live with. However, strong colours in a dull environment can liven up the surroundings.

I love the second design, but I admit that it would lose a lot of impact if it was in my preferred colour range.

Black and White, but not all over from Art In Search

Long ago, I participated in a star swap with Barb Vedder. It used black and white prints in the center and solids for the stars. They came out lovely. I made some extra. And then they sat until I figured out what to do with them to make a quilt.

Adding another row of flying geese all around, making a star within a star, looked appealing to me. I had to scrounge to find enough different solids. I make my Flying Geese with the Easy Angle and the Companion Ruler. If I cut right, no trimming, YAY!

However, I arrived ...

Previous black and white quilts............. from Exuberant Color

I have made a few black and white quilts/quilt tops in the past. This Trip Around the World is all batiks.

This Strips and Curves is made with regular quilting cottons. Some of the pieces are cut out of strip piecing made with 1" finished strips.

I started out with a Maple Island pattern for this quilt but didn't do the border like the pattern.

I have a love/hate relationship with all black and white quilts and that is because I love color so much.

I have figured out 3 quilts that I'm going to cut ...

Is it ready to sew?............ from Exuberant Color

Every time I walked into the studio I moved blocks. That went on all day but I didn't want to sew it until I see it again this morning.

I have a couple quilts in mind for my black and white batiks. It will take awhile to cut them so this will be an all week project. The black and white batiks were really popular in the mid to late 1990s and the majority of these were purchased while I was working at a quilt shop. Lots of them are Princess Mirah batiks. Hoffman came out with black and ...

A Quilting Life Block of the Month (Jan's Quilt) from Sew........This Is My Blog

If you need more projects to work on or you're looking for a quilty podcast to listen to, check out Sherri's blog, A Quilting Life. Just after the Covid isolation began my quilty friend Denise used that blog to entice me into doing a Mystery Block of the Month as a sew-along with her. It turns out this Mystery BOM is an annual thing. Now she's talked me and three other neighbors into making the 2022 mystery quilt. More about that later.

The 2020 quilt was designed using all half-square-triangles. I decided to use bright batiks .....

Hampton Court Quilt Pattern - A Scrappy Black and White Throw Quilt! from Busy Hands Quilts

Today I'm sharing another Hampton Court quilt. This time it's a scrappy black and white quilt. Some of my favorite fabrics to collect are black prints with just white in them. They're so versatile.

Hampton Court is a great stash-busting quilt pattern that calls for fat quarters or yardage, and it's super easy to translate that into using fabric from your scrap bins.

The Hampton Court quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.

Ditto Quilt from The Cutting Table Quilt Blog - A Blog for Quilters by Quilters

Ditto Quilt by Jenny Doan of the Missouri Star Quilt Company.

Mastering a new quilt block is like learning to ride a bike. You may feel a bit intimidated. Your uncertainty might cause a few wobbly stitches.

Then, just like magic, you’re soaring across the fabric without a care in the world, cranking out quilt blocks like a pro!

Ditto by Jenny Doan of the Missouri Star Quilt Company.

This week, Jenny is working on a modern black and white asterisk quilt, and just you wait and see! Once you’ve conquered those first few seams, you can ride off into the sunset with a trail of beautiful quilt blocks in your wake!

PQ 12. 6 Ab Intra challenge from Sew Sunshine

So Project Quilting 12.6 challenge is Ab Intra -Latin for 'from within'. Once again I wanted to combine scraps for #nationalquiltingmonth #sewthescrapoutofmarch all month long. I thought of a couple things I could do but came back to starting with my favorite color combo black and white...and use prints I had in my scrap pile. The center sort of represents me and then building bits around is kind of like building on experiences. Using scraps was perfect for that because you never know what you will run into.

I got out some cardboard and did some measurements to ...

Interesting!

Love the second.

Love the third, but I would look for a black fabric with more subdued print … or none at all.

First finish for May 2020................ from Exuberant Color

This quilt top was finished in April 2014 and now it is quilted and bound, a real finish. It is 74" x 95".

It is a Kathy Doughty design which she called Soul Searching. I think it looks like party lanterns so that is what I will call mine.

This is the book from C&T Publishing that the quilt and directions are in. I added crosswise rows at both ends to make it more rectangular and it fits a twin/single bed.

I had two 3 yard pieces of black and white prints that I used on the back ...

Playing with stash again.......... from Exuberant Color

While I am sewing my African fabric 16 patches I also continue to think about this yellow black and white project. I decided to look for some fabrics to use for some alternate blocks with the crazy pieced blocks. These 2 positive/negative prints aren't batik and all of the fabrics so far have been batik.

I have been looking for a place to use the birds batik.

This pair of positive/negative prints are batik also.

I have many black and white zebra batiks so I tried this pair.

I'll continue sewing and pondering..........

2 more variations............ from Exuberant Color

Same star as yesterday but with Broken Dishes center.

The blocks will finish at 20" so I only need to make 12 of them for a 60" x 80" quilt top. That is assuming I won't add sashing or a border.

Two changes on this one. First the center is a pinwheel. Second the 3 colored squares together on the top half of the block and 2 split squares and 1 whole square on the bottom half of the block. I originally planned to do them with whole (not pieced) squares and since I have over 400 cut that ...

Making it in shades of black and white from Sew Sunshine

So far this has been a kind of a rough year for me health-wise and now it seems it will be so much more than rough for everyone. I am going to choose to keep working on my projects when I have good days because it really does make me feel better.

I started sewing some of my black and white prints together back in Jan. I wanted mindless sewing so I made 4 big squares.

I kind of think this would have made a fun quilt as is but I decided to cut them up and sew them back ...

Red, Black and White 9, 10 from Virtual Quilter

I keep finding little clumps of projects which have been shoved in a corner and forgotten. This project file is one of half a dozen found under a virtual stash of block drawing projects. All the blocks are basically pieced 9P blocks.

LOL! The seam lines look like I used white thread to piece everything together … something I would have to unpick in a real project, but it can be an advantage when sharing virtual designs as you can see the seam lines. But in the virtual world, we don’t always see the same thing on our screens!

Der Interwoven Quilt ist schwarz-weiß geworden. In einem Quilt Along habe ich die Streifen aneinander genäht und tatsächlich fertig bekommen. Das Muster habe ich von Loandbehold.

2019 is my black and white year. It all started with the Interwoven Quilt Along. Stripes in black and white- easy peasy- but that was not how it worked. It was difficult to have the right 1/4" seams. I got the pattern from Lo and Behold Stitchery.
