Sunrise450: I'm working on a quilt like that, and posted a picture. I'm not sure if that's the one you're talking about. I sewed all the rows but haven't sewn them together yet. I'm trying to figure out how to make it a rectangle instead of a square. A friend of mine said I could put a row of black between each row of color. I like that idea except that I worked so hard trying to place colors above and below each square that would compliment it, that I'm resistant to putting something in between them now.
I really don't remember if this is where I saw it or not. Could you direct me to where the picture is? The black between each row sounds stunning. It sounds like a lot of work but if you have a large piece of black, you could put the black on your design wall and arrange two or three rows with the black in between. On one hand I want to stick with the set up I have in mind but on the other, I think the black would be really stunning.
