    I haven't done one in all whites but saw one done in white on whites and one done in pale grays - both were stunning!

    A Dutch artist published a book of blocks, which, when put together, looked like a whole cloth quilt--about 20 years ago. A friend of mine made such a quilt with white on one side and green on the other which turned out beautifully. Sadly, the name escapes me now, but perhaps you can find the title somewhere.

    I am working on a white/off white QAG string quilt and so far love the look of it.

    I did a white on white. It was a kind of block of the month, so each block was done differently with different hearts. 20 in all. I added 30" borders so it hung low on a queen, I made it a scalloped border and quilted hearts in it. From beginning to end, it took me one month of quilting white on white, it's beautiful.

    go for it and have fun

    I made a 'Wickedly Simple' quilt using a collection of whites, white on white and off whites. It turned out beautiful. Go for it............................

    I am having a hard time visualizing these pure white/WOW quilts!
    Whole cloths yes ... but pieced, I guess I am not "getting it"!!!

    How about sharing some pics of these white beauties??
    ... which I am sure they are. I just need to see some!
    THANKS!

    I'm doing this pattern in all off-whites, queen-sized. I'm really liking it.
