Yet again, I know you are tired of seeing it LOL, I am going to say 9 patch with a snowball. It is super easy, uses standard cuts, very forgiving in application. I used 6.5" squares and 2.5" square. Aqua and white for an Aunt in flannel and the brown and aqua for an Uncle in flannel. Flannel front and backing with wool batting. They both love them for the warmth as they are elderly, well, some say, so am I LOL!!

Sue Garman's quilt looks a lot like a Burgoyne Surround. https://www.google.com/search?q=2+co...HZQYAroQsAQIHA
A pattern is available. I did one in confetti colors, someone said it looked like I dropped Skittles. Grabbed the wrong picture, this is just the unfinished top. Let's try that again[ATTACH=CONFIG]538109[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]538108[/ATTACH] |
WOW! Never ever thought there would be so many 2 color quilt options.
|
Ron Appel has some really neat patterns on YouTube that can be done in two colors.
|
My suggestion is the Drunkards Path. I made a king size for my daughter which turned out nice but I got so tired of just two colors.
|
LOVE the two color quilts in this book SPLASH DASH AND PANACHE . Check it out on Amazon and you can see if it is something that you might be interested in pursuing...
Butterscotch Sundae is one of my favorites....I am making it in red and white.... All quilts in this book are supposed to be easy to make.. |
windmill i did mine in red and white
|
A lot of old quilts in museums are made with white and (usually assorted scraps) dark blue. One design I have enjoyed making alternates 4-patch blocks with pinwheel blocks. Half of the pinwheel blocks have to go each direction. (I originally thought up this idea when a club block exchange collected pinwheels going both clockwise and counterclockwise.)
|
imho, just about any block can be made with two colors. I like drunkards path, sunshine and shadow, birds in the air, ocean waves, snow ball, 9P, barn raising, etc. The list is endless. Enjoy which ever pattern you choose and don't forget show and tell!
