Oh, I must admit I've always been a sucker for red/black/white combos... It's the color choice I've used the most over the years. I also like the pattern you chose. Should make a great looking quilt. Can't wait to see it.

I have 4 Christmas gifts I want to make for this year, so when I go places I will be shopping for those. I have pulled what I have from stash and put them aside in cler plastic bins, cut pieces from each piece and have them grouped together on index cards and in one of those green plastic photo things from walmart. Makes it easy to see what I have and add to it.

Ok cjomomma,I saw that pattern in the Quilt magazine in Walmart the other day. And thought "you know I need to do anther B&W. Nah, I have to much going on right now." And this morning what do I see; all of your beautiful fabrics ,they have flung a craving on me. Thanks :lol: :roll: :D :D :lol: Oh, I am collecting B&W&R of course but blue also , and I am not usually drawn to blue. In my stash I have a lot of green and earth tones.

I want to see what you have been collecting for a particular quilt too!!

I am one of those people that "buy" just because of the colors, then when i want to do something the fabric is there. i saw your pattern in April issue of Quilt and wanted to do a "black, white and red.Went to purchase the "reds" and it's discouraging because reds have so many hues, pink , orange, yellow that i could not find what i needed so I'll save the pattern and keep trying. Good luck!barb
