pictures of a quilt made with just two color fabrics? I have 2 beautiful pieces of fabric in my stash that I would love to make a lap blanket with. Has anyone done one using just two fabrics? Thanks for your time in advance. Warm Hugs, Janet

This is a quilt show of red and white quilts. Amazing

Two color quilts can look amazing with the right pattern.

The cover quilt in More Simple Quilts with Splash, Dash & Panache by Nicole Chambers is a great 2-fabric quilt. I haven't made this quilt yet, but I've seen it done, and it's on my to-do list.

There are lots of quilts that look wonderful in just two colors - here's an antique/vintage Drunkard's Path that I bought on eBay and quilted.

Other patterns are Ohio Star, Wild Goose Chase, Irish Chain, Orange Peel... gosh, your options are in the dozens, I think. :)

Ohio star is one that I really like. Another is a 9 patch with a solid block between makes a nice quilt to show off your quilting. And the chain effect is nice. Happy Quilting :-D

I did a quilt called Union Square and posted it on this site, it is Blue and white. Pick out you favorite pattern and just use your two colors.

nycquilter 04-01-2011 02:41 PM

you can also use various fabrics in your chosen two colors.

Hunter star is my favorite.

There's hardly anything prettier than a red and white or a blue and white.

Thank you all for your inputs... When I come to a decision, I will post it and hopefully have a sample block to share... :) You ladies are great.... Warm Hugs from FL Janet
