I'm working on a black and white value quilt. Here it is laid out on the floor. I hope 1. no-one kicks the blocks out of position as they walk past and 2. it comes together looking as good as it does on the floor! It really is true that if you squint or look through the camera lens that you can see if some of the colour grades aren't working. I thought that this style of quilt would be easy if I just stuck with black and white....afterall, it's either more black or more white....isn't it? No! Some fabrics that you think are more black are in fact somewhere in between. See the big white spot on the black. And the white flower on black. Those two turned out to be not as strong as some of the others. I've kept them in but had to move them around a bit to make the pattern work. A good lesson nonetheless.
Oooh, not at all what I was expecting. I like it.....can't wait to see it in the flesh!
