Remember Ebony and Ivory? .... it was my friend, Mary's, design and our class all did one. it looked like this.
The fabric line is The Cumberland Collection by Choice Fabrics. I really loved those fabrics and went and got more of it....quite a bit more. LOL
So, yesterday i finished piecing what i am calling Black and White Step Down Squares. i used the Cumberland Collection to make it. i saw the pattern somewhere online and stole it. LOL it turned out 82x90" .
It went super fast and i am in love with it.
All you do is cut out 8 1/2" blocks.....4 1/2" blocks.....and 2 1/2" blocks.
I made 4 patches with the 4 1/2" blocks and 16 patches....made up of four 4 patches.....with the 2 1/2" blocks. that way they were all 8" finished.
Made the border half white and half black.
I want to make more of these with different colors. the next one will have less 8" blocks and more 4" blocks i'm thinking.
PLUS....i still have more .....lots more....of The Cumberland Collection left over. more white than black. gotta find something else to make with it. probably enough left for a couple more quilts.
I cut some of Cumberland up for a 1600" quilt......lots more still left. i see more B&W quilts in my immediate future.
