There have been some really fun projects created and I've even added a few to my "To Do" list. :-)
Yesterday, for a chance to win two charm packs, I asked what color you'd to see me add to my next black and white quilt. It's been fun reading all the answers and quite honestly, I don't think I could go wrong adding any color. There's still time to answer the question and grab a chance at winning.

I spent a little time going back through some pictures of my black and white quilts, and I'm kind of surprised at how many I've made. I kind of forgot about a couple of these. That's mostly because they've been given away. :-)
Just for fun, here are some pictures of those quilts/projects.
This is the only one, besides the one I made for this hop that is just black and white. This is a variation of the Crazy 8 pattern and I made it way back in 2008.
This one was fun! It's my version of Mad as a Hatter. I love the little blue frames! I bound this in solid black because I thought adding more blue would be too much. For some reason, I don't have a picture of this finished. I have to correct that. This was made in 2016.
Here are a couple of blocks I made for an block swap a few years ago (2015). These were fun to make and the recipient was quite happy with them.
You can add just a little or a lot of color to a black and white quilt and it always seems to look good. I called this quilt 4 Patch Deception because of the way it was constructions. Hint: I didn't make four patches and sash them with yellow fabric. Can you see Lynn's toes sticking our from under the quilt? I should have had her paint her nails bright yellow or black. :-)
There is a lot of green in the Diamond quilt, but I love it! I made this in 2011, but I'm looking for the right green fabric to make another one for my son-in-law. He's a tall guy, so I'll be making this much larger.
Way back in 2010, I made a variation of the Weaver Fever quilt that is predominately black and white. I love the purple and lime green in this. Like the Mad as a Hatter quilt, I don't have a picture of the finished quilt. I still have this quilt and will get a picture when the weather is better. I added a flange type binding that was lime green and black.
There are a few other black and white quilts that I've made but the pictures are pretty bad. Nevertheless, it seems pretty apparent to me that I love this color combination and I'm sure that I'll be making more.
