Here is the start of laying out my black and red quilt. The blocks are all sizes, so filler here and there will be needed. There are 5 different blocks, all made in two different sizes.

Now the fun begins on how to get it all put together.

That is going to be stunning! Very rich in color!

Wow, CB, that looks briliant - no wonder you changed your avatar, it's that one just there, isn't it? Great job, I look forward to seeing it finished. Who is this one for?

That will just look amazing! Such a brilliant look to it.

Oh, my, CB, that is beautiful and I didn't know I loved red and black until now!! Can't wait to see it finished!!!

The cats have already been playing with the blocks, I think I am going to have to work on it today whether I want to or not now that it is on the floor.

Thank you very much everyone.

I know have to figure what is going in the spaces, I have left over pieccs frommhe blocks as well as another red that is different than what is already used.

Wow? That's a lot of work!! It's going to be stunning! My MIL would love it dearly, her colors are black and red.

WooHoo that is awesome!!! Loved watching the blocks all come togther and they ALL play together nicely, I really like your layout!!! :D :D :D
What fabrics are you planning on using for fillers???

I thought to use up some of the scraps form the blocks and then I have this other red pieces that I thought maybe. I am kind of nervous, there is not straight rows, so there will be some corners etc going in, but what can I do, I don't want that look.

Wow......that is one colorful quilt.

Oh, golly, that's gonna be really nice!!

Wow. that's stunning. Who will get this as a gift??

WOW

it looks great!!

Thank you so much everyone, It is going together a bit different than it is laying on the floor, I have the first few pieces sewn.

i am not sure who it is for, it is just something that I wanted to try.

First little bit done, as you can see I have plenty of help with it.

Looking at the one red, I am not sure about it yet, but I think it will do better once there is more in the quilt. The quilt is supposed to have a bit of a chaotic look to it, so we will see, If I don't like it in the end I am not sure what ti do, it will be buried in so much that I will hate to pick it out,

I leave for the day and come back to find a whole book to read!!! I love the quilt layout!! It is going to be gorgeous as usual!!

I like that fabric, bits here and there along with your other scraps...or maybe piece some of that red/white with some of the other scraps... I just LIKE it alot :D :D :D

Girlfriend, when do you sleep! I love the blocks!!!!

looks good great idea.... :wink: :D :D :D

That's going to be fantastic. Can't wait to see the finished product.

sleep? I am supposed to sleep? really? huh, who knew?

Well, i tis a bit slow going and I am pulling I think more than anything, but here is the start of it, I hope I get better at making decisions as I go along or I will still be here next year.

Thank you everyone, I am working on it, and working on it and trying to figure out how it all should go and waht should go where, it is fun but long process.

really great looking stuff, there, Cutie! Can't wait to see it finished. I love black and red :P

Beautiful!! Love the rich red!!
Can't wait to see it finished!!

Thank you everyone again, here is the next bit done, I am just pecking at it, and of course I have lots of help.

Wow CB...I really like that! I love to do quilts like this that come together as you go...like a jigsaw puzzle...except you don't have a picture..and you also don't have all the pieces...its hard, but fun at the same time!

It is a first for me, so learing along the way. it is going better now that I am sort of on a roll. if I didn't have so much help it might even go faster.

I LOVE all the different designs with just two colors. This should be stunning when it's put together. Don't envy you trying to get them all in there. I'd be lost.

It's coming together wonderfully!!! I love those splashes of white and red!!! :D 8) :D

It's going great!!! I love the little bits of red and white! Makes it unique!

So I have the one edge all done. THe cats have helped, Kate has helped, kids running through have helped, so things got changed around, and as I put things together I switched things up so it seemed to go together better. So here is what I have so far.

Looking Awesome!!! 8) 8) 8)
Love how it is all coming together
So many helpful helpers :D :D :D
Just becareful you don't fall off of
whatever you are standing on :shock: :?

Thank you Amma, I made it to the floor safe and sound, I had to to be able to post the pictures, it is a tall stool, have to get high to get it all in the picture nicely, next time I might have to stand on the table, it is a little higher.

You be careful up on that stool Cute! I love this and I must say I wasn't sure about the red and white fabric when there was only one piece in there but now you have it running through the layout I think it really adds dimension to the design! This is going to be stunning. :D And BTW thanks for sharing the pics with 'helpers' and where they've rumpled it up - such fun to see how you work! :D

Wow, Looks like its coming along very nicely.

oooh, oooh, oooh (my hand is waiving in the air)...PICK ME, PICK ME!!!! It's so pretty, I promise to treat her royally!!

Nice progress CB!!

oooooooooo that's gonna be gorgeous hun :D

Very nice.
