Jane's Black and White Quilt

on
Quite some time ago - way back in April, to be exact - I told you all about a black-and-white quilt I had started for my friend, Jane.  Fast forward through too many months (sorry it took so long, girl!) and it's finally finished...


black and white quilt 1


The pattern is Full Swing by Rachel Griffith (which is free at the Fat Quarter Shop, by the way!) and I used a black-and-white bundle from Fabricworm.  The back is a gorgeous fabric I picked up at a almost-local quilt store in Charlotte.  The white is, of course, Kona White, which I buy by the bolt now...LOL!

Jane has been waiting forever for this quilt, and I had hoped to finish it on the road trip to Savannah yesterday, but apparently 5 hours isn't enough to put on binding... oy!!  I was able to finish it this afternoon, though, as she and some others were touring downtown Savannah.

So, when I finished taking pictures, I went upstairs to her room and spread it across her bed. Can't wait to hear her squeal when she sees it. :)

Hope you love it, Jane!

    Impressive - This is inspiring me to try some black-and-white! I love your blog name - I thought about naming my blog "Mom's Nine-to-Midnight Quilting", since that's usually when my sewing happens ...

    Just curious how many fat quarters you used for this? I looked at the pattern and since she didn't use FQ I was wondering how many you used. Thanks and this is fabulous!
