It took me forever to make the first cut. Now I have all the half square triangles sewn together and (although it doesn't show in the pictures) about half of the strips sewn together. Hopefully, I can finish the strips by tonight..... ya know if I ever drag myself off of here ;)
When I do finally get this part finished, I have 6" wide finished boarders of a black and white print that go around it. It should finish between 115x115 and 120x120 approx. (I'm not the greatest math person so I guesstimate)

Stunning quilt! I love black and white.

I love this patten. It is so contemporary in B&W. Doesn't it go together so easily!

babyfireo4 05-30-2011 03:57 PM

Pretty easy. After I got all of the light to dark half square triangles together it only took about an hour and a half to get it laid out on the floor and the strips go pretty quickly. I cheat on them though I pin the entire strip together so I don't lose the direction and can do the entire strip while i'm at the machine :)

How big are your HST?

It is a very nice quilt, I have yet to make a black and white but I have all the material to do one... someday.

Gorgeous quilt. Love it.

cwessel47 05-30-2011 04:32 PM

Wonderful, wonderful! The graphic-ness of black and white has really created an eye-opener here. You go, girl! Fabulous! Can't wait to see the finish!

Beautiful quilt. You did a great job.

daisey 05-30-2011 04:42 PM

Just Great!

CompulsiveQuilter 05-30-2011 05:06 PM

Are you sure you don't want to first add a solid black border? I love black and white and I love "busy" but I need a place for my eye to rest before yet-another black and white print. Just MHO

jillnjo 05-30-2011 05:14 PM

Looks great! Your doing an awsome job. Please post a picture when you have the boarder on.

babyfireo4 05-30-2011 08:31 PM

I will post a pic when the boarder is on. I might add a thin solid black boarder first (need to see if I have enough left). That was a great idea, Thank You!
