    Has anyone made a snowball / 9 patch quilt using only 2 colors, if so can you post a picture. I am tossing the idea around .

    Here are the two options in B&W.
    Depends on the make-up of the 9Patch (whether it's 5/4 or 4/5).
    Same sized blocks.

    Personally, I think using just two fabrics is kind of boring.
    However, multiple fabrics (using different tonals,prints,etc) would be a lot more interesting.
    Just as long as the contrast between the two colors remains pretty constant.

    Thanks, my thoughts were too use cream as the snowball and 2 of the small prints from the Kansas Troubles line in browns, then a larger print from the collection for a boarder.... I like the 1st as its close to an Irish Chain look.
