The second quilt I posted, the 9-patch, is an example of black with print. It's just hard to see. But it shows you what can be done with such fabrics. And I believe if the fabric is black-on-black, you can use it and it will read as solid until you get up close. So ALL of these quilts are good examples of what you can do with black-on-black.

I love all the quilts posted. Someday I'd like to make one with a black background.

I did one with pinwheels and really like the way it turned out. I had lots of bright colors that I used.
