    Been trying to figure out what pattern to use for a black and white quilt.
    (the b&w swap was my inspiration)
    been looking for several days and here's the one I picked.

    Hubby and dd#3 have approved the pattern ;)

    This will be for ME!!!! and I'm sure if I'm not mad now I will be totally certifiable by the time I'm done with this.

    That will be awesome and you won't be crazy- you'll be cozy with your new quilt!!

    throw some red in it too - I love splashes of red in B&W quilts.

    Thanx for the votes of confidence. Found some gorgeous blacks at a LQS today...
    I coulda bought 10 but decided 3 yds was enough for 1 trip ;)
    Just need to find a couple more "whites" (will see about picking them up tomorrow)
    and maybe a bit of that red Esq suggested before I can start.
    Will post pics of fabs when I get 'm all.

    It looks really complex, but the individual units are all manageable.

    It will make a fabulous quilt.
