Son wanted black/white, over the river
2 Attachment(s)
My son wanted this quilt over the river and through the woods done in scrappy black/white. I still have the flying geese border to do.

Lovely, I can't wait till you post the finished quilt.

Very nice!

I like the black and white. Can't wait to see it finished. Thanks for sharing.

What a great quilt. I am sure your son will treasure it. You did a wonderful job.

Thanks so much.

It's great, makes me think of home! Can't wait to see the finished quilt.

I like it - I just realized that the alternate blocks are made up of the same units - cool!
|

|
wow what a very striking quilt, great job on it.
|
Wow..It's a beauty.
Thank for sharing |
What a beauty! I have this pattern...I just love it!

Thank you. I hope you will enjoy making your's as well. I showed it to my son, ( he'll be 25 tomorrow) and all he said was NOT BAD!!!! I should kick him in his butt!!!
|
Wow! I have this in process in navy. Thanks for the inspiration to finish!
|
Nice work! Thank you for sharing!

Awesome. BrendaK
|
ooh that's nice.
|
That pattern is one of my all time favourites in modern Red Work today. I love your black and white version and it is going to be beautiful!
|
That is stunning. What a great idea to do it in black and white.
|
Hurry up and finish I can't t wait to see it!
|
Thank you all so much.
|
that is really nice-wouldn't have expected it but it looks very sophisticated this way. Great job
|
I love the black & white....such a fresh & "tailored" look! Great work!

that is so striking! and beautiful work! How long did it take you to do this part? I have this pattern also but have dreaded starting because it seems so intimidating. I love the needlework part of it but am not sure I will stick to it long enough to finish. Thanks for the inspiration. And, I would kick his butt too! Gorgeous!

Very nice ... have to get mine done

Just gorgeous! Black and white makes it look like the days when everything is covered in snow and all you see are the outlines of things. Your son had really good vision to want it in B&W. Winter is my favorite season!
|
Thank you, it took about three months of on and off to complete, but have been working on many others as well. I know you can do it, and the thing is once you start ya just don't want to stop.

Very, very neat! Very one-of-a-kind! This is gorgeous... Love any stars anyway....
I'm making star blocks for my GS that will graduate in 3 yrs, the next yr his brother & my oldest GD, then the next yr her sister. Soo hope this is starting soon enough?... Girls are no problem but boys, whoa....... so I came up with stars & will incorporate some pieces from their Paw Paw's shirts,(my deceased hubby. Only 2 really remember him, he's been gone 11 yrs this Dec.) a block from their Grandma (my Mom) & maybe a Coca Cola patch from their Great Paw Paw's shirts (my Dad). |
Great job. I have this pattern, your's makes me want to get it started.
|
Wonderful, it is just stunning. And it is just what he asked for. That is the most important thing.
|
love it in black and white
|
Yes it is, thank you, I know he'll take good care of it, as the one I made him years ago is still just like it was just made.

Thanks so much. Good luck with all your quilts. Such a great touch you'll be adding. My 2 older girls dad has been gone now for 32 years, and I know the really don't remember him to much, they were way to young at the time. There step-dad has been a great dad to them. I have really been blessed.
