The last week or so I have been playing with a different kind of colour combination…one that really has not got a lot of “colour” in it. My inspiration was a very old photo that hangs on our living room wall…
(Please note..I can neither confirm or deny that I am in this photo).
Anyway I have always loved black and white photographs, which really are more grey and white than black and white, and thought why not play with greys in a quilt. The end result was this block…
I used another fabulous free paper piecing pattern from Quilters Cache called Atlantic Sea. The block pieces look rather strange and a pattern is not immediately obvious.
But when you put more and more of the blocks together you get this wild, slightly mesmerizing pattern.
I think as this quilts grows more and more patterns and shapes will become visible. It is really a little trippy but cool.
