Scraps with Black and White

60" x 72"
The fabric pieces for this quilt were cut this summer, but got put on hold because other quilts took priority. But I am glad it's off my cutting table now and ready for someone to snuggle with. 

It's a one block quilt and there are 30 blocks in the quilt. I started using 9 black and white and 9 color fabrics in each block, but it just seemed like there was too much black and white and not enough color. So I started switching out one or two of the black and white for a colored one in each block. 


 It was still challenging to layout the blocks with all that black and white, but I persevered and got it done. I love the break of color the black and white provide. It's a fun scrappy quilt for sure! Lot's of scraps still to go!
