    I've always wanted to make a 2 color snail's trail. I own a red & white double irish chain. But the ones posted here are all wonderful!

    I did as well. It looks relatively easy with snowballs and 9 patches. Two color quilts are so dramatic.

    I love this board! I found some beautiful royal blue and white wool while cleaning out my stash and wondered about a quilt pattern for 2 fabrics. I loved that my question was asked, and I got such wonderful ideas. Thanks!!!!

    OK this is the pattern that I have decided on, and my impulse fabric that I could not live without. (and I know that I have two dangling participle is that sentence.) ;-) It's called a disappearing 4 patch, with a twist. I started with 6 1/2 squares and ended with a 10 1/2 inch block. It's very tricky and takes a steady hand and a lot of precision to dissect the 4 patch. It might take me years to finish it, but I love it. This might be one quilt that I have to keep.

    Stack and wack quilts, you would use a large print for that and add another for the border, or settings. Any of the red/white, blue/white etc. quilts would work well.

    I agree that this is a great pattern. I actually bought this pattern and have been looking for a while--for the perfect mini flower print fabric to go with off-white --to make this quilt. My plans are to work at this at a retreat I am going to this Fall.
