    Several years ago my sil was telling me on the phone about setting a Christmas sampler with black sashing and I thought this sounded so odd . . . . until I saw it! I loved how the black set it off. Now I use black in 99% of my projects.

    I love black and white quilts - I am collecting different sized patterns of black and white fabric for a quilt at the moment. Love the black & white quilts with a hint of a bold solid - yellow, red, purple, bright blue or green

    Black & white are great together together! I love that stark contrast.
    I have made a few that I think turned out really pretty!
    WOW - awesome quilts

    Black and white and red are great colors for baby quilts. These are the colors that babies see first...I think it's the great contrast. I made my DGD one and she looked at it all the time.

    Thanks everybody for showing your black & white quilts. Those contrasts really rock.
    I have different ones from past years. Some are very scrappy and some are the black & white tonals.

    Great quilts everyone! I also like white, tan and cream with very busy prints to tone them down a bit!
