What is your fav two color quilt pattern?
#21
I just googled two colored quilts: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...mg.XqcIqD-loc4
I will tell you right now that Delectable Mountains is a very easy pattern. You take a half square triangle and slice it up and sew it back together. Easy Peasy.

Bonnie calls it scrappy mountain majesties.
Here's a pretty one:

Just besure to press all seams open. It will help you tremendously.

I've done several snail trail quilts in two colors (sorry, no pics). One was my DD's school color--purple. I used lights, mediums and darks. It is interesting how in some squares the medium is dark and in others, it is light. The other quilt was for my then-boyfriend (now DH) and done in blues. I paper-pieced each block and used a 6" block.

I googled red and tan quilt patterns and I thought this one was really nice, and it is just a string quilt done with the 2 colours

Bother, that link doesn't take you directly to the picture, you will need to scroll down to almost the bottom of the page and the quilt I am taking about is call red, black and tan

I have probably made 8 or ten Winner's circles with just two colors. Sometimes I have added the third color in border but still made the blocks just two colors. goes fast. Just 20 blocks and than your borders I extended the borders to finish either queen or even king size.

I have a whole book on two-color quilts. It shows blue and white on the cover, but of course you are not limited to that. I got it years ago; it's a 9x12 paperback. It's Quick Method Classic Blue Quilts by Leisure Arts Inc., date 1997.
