not sure about the cornerstones...what i will make them yet....but what do you think?? i've never done a b&w before and i think it's going to be alot of fun!

Tartan 05-12-2012 06:31 PM

I really like them! It is neat how they are a positve and negative image of each other in B&W.

I like it. I've done a couple of black and white with red quilts and love that combination. Not sure about what cornerstones would look best with yours though.

Love red, black, and white quilts!

Great start!!

Latrinka 05-12-2012 07:07 PM

I think I love it! Beautiful!

Those are nice. How about solid black cornerstones?

kathy 05-13-2012 03:03 AM

i LOVE churn dash blocks and i think your b&w&r is going to be a knockout

Phannie1 05-13-2012 03:15 AM

Very Nice, I think Black corner stones with the red shashing is lovely.

DebbE 05-13-2012 06:43 AM

Simple black cornerstones would be perfect!

DixieDoodle 05-13-2012 07:16 AM

I agree with the black cornerstones. I love your blocks, please post picture when quilt is finished.

GramaLaura 05-13-2012 07:22 AM

Oh so pretty!!! I am starting to collect black white and red fabrics. Hope mine turns out pretty like yours. Make sure to post the finished quilt :)

Sewfine 05-13-2012 07:24 AM

I like them both. Love the red sashing.

sewmorethings 05-13-2012 07:32 AM

Your blocks are beautiful, can't wait to see the finished quilt. I didn't use corner stones on the ones i made. I have done 2 of them and love, love, love the black and white. Starting a charity quilt using black and white samples i got. Don't know if i will use red in this one or not, none of the samples have red.

i woke up this morning and my first thought was those blocks! first church and then exercises for the healing back and THEN its block day! LOL this is going to be fun! i think i will do solid black cornerstones, its going to get pretty busy as it goes along! i will keep you posted and keep pics going. i can see it in my minds eye when its done but that minds eye has a tendency to fool you once in a while! thanks much guys!! the feedback is great!

This will be a fun one to work on ... looking good with only two blocks.

Black as Phannie suggested could be nice .... or no cornerstones, just the red sashing.

Plus ... have you considered no sashing? if you alternated the positive/negatives, you'd get a really nice look too!

Helen S 05-13-2012 08:00 AM

Love them! The touch of red really makes the black and white stand out more, I think.

jojosnana 05-13-2012 08:14 AM

That is going to be a great quilt!

mighty 05-13-2012 06:53 PM

So pretty! I think black cornerstones.

Aunt Janey 05-13-2012 08:59 PM

Love the black and white churn dash blocks. The red in the blocks and the sashing really stand out and make the blocks pop. I agree that "IF" you do cornerstones that you use black. Can't wait to see more blocks.

pls1946 05-14-2012 06:51 AM

Really nice use of black and white...

rkymtnquilter 05-14-2012 07:10 AM

I like it so far! I've wanted to do a b&w one before....so keep us updated and let us see the finished product!

homecaregiver 05-14-2012 07:30 AM

I love your blocks and I also lean to a black cornerstone. Great job so far.

looks great. I love doing black, white and red quilts. I like your quilt so far.

Mariposa 05-14-2012 09:55 AM

You're off to a great start! :)

JudyTheSewer 05-14-2012 10:04 AM

They are wonderful! I can't wait to see the final outcome.

I'm just finishing a black and white zentanglish-type quilt. I've quilted and bound it and have a couple flowers to applique on the front. I saw another member that appliqued large poppies on the front of her black and white quilt and it really made it bloom (no pun intended). Black and white is such a wonderful canvas to work on. Yours will be wonderful. I love the churn dash block and think the quilt will tell you what color the corner stones should be. Thanks for sharing.

BrendaK 05-14-2012 11:25 AM

How kool this quilt will be. Looking forward to seeing the finished quilt. Makes me want to get going on one for me. BrendaK

Jammin' Jane 05-22-2012 01:26 PM

It looks great! Looking forward to seeing the finished quilt!
I think black cornerstones would like nice!

barny 05-22-2012 01:30 PM

I love the black and white. you could put opposite colors on the cornerstones.

okay im almost there! wish i could figure out how to send a whole pic not part of a pic but it keeps going over the MB download limits for size....if anyone knows how to fix this, can you let me know?

quiltymom 05-26-2012 08:58 AM

Sew nice great job!!!

RDM 05-26-2012 09:03 AM

Great blocks, love your fabrics and love churn dash. Would love to see your finished quilt. As for cornerstones, you may want to wait and decide after your blocks are completed.
