Go have a look at the fabrics a couple of the gals are using for their two color quilt projects. Yummy, yummy. By the way, a couple of people have inquired if the two color project can be something other than a bed quilt. Of course! Anything goes. Pillows, tote bags, table toppers, table runners–whatever your heart desires and your imagination comes up with. If you don’t have a blog, but want to play along, just send me a photo of your progress from time to time and I will post it on my blog. Let’s go wild!
Check my side bar for links to those people who are playing along who do have blogs–even if you catch them on a day when they are not talking about the two color quilt challenge, you will be inspired and entertained by what they are up to, I promise.
Susan is going with red and white, and incorporating some red work embroidery. This is going to be stunning! I cannot wait to see what pattern she uses.
Andrea has some sweet and soft light blues and creams for her version.
I made progress yesterday with the center sections of my Union Square blocks. It was fun to fussy cut the toile to feature some of the motifs.

Nicoe: Your blocks are looking great! I can’t wait to see how the challenge turns out. I wish I could joing along. I’m backed up quilt-wise with deadlines so I can’t add another project. Maybe next time.
Is Ozzie stil in the dog house?

I love your blocks. The fabric of your outside triangles adds a lot of interest.

I’m going to do the Two Color challenge- it will give me a reason to keep working on the one that I’ve already started (and desperately want to finish by July!)
I’ve already blogged about it here:
