This morning I finished the second Almost Black & White quilt, made from my scraps, from my stash, and my neighbors scraps. There are still enough strips for another quilt, I might have to buy a few fat quarters for variety. This one is 80 x 68. I put a little red piece in the binding like I did on the first one. I sent my first AB&W home with my BIL for his daughter's wedding. These are too much fun to make. No corners/points to match!

Wow! That is really pretty! I am not a fan of black and white but your quilt is changing my mind. My youngest likes black and white and that would be a good one for her.

The strips are 3". Piecing goes fast. This is a two or three day quilt if the strips are ready.

The variety of B&W fabrics you have makes the quilt just sparkle. Good job.

Sherri, this board is changing my mind too! I love this and never would have thought I liked b/w- also starting to like purple, and I just bought a Featherweight that I didn't know I couldn't live without! LOL this board is expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D:D
Mary, love your quilt! :thumbup:

That's a very neat looking quilt, I really like it. The black and white are really stark together and really pop!
