Isn't that light grey print beautiful? It looks like a rich, grey wool flannel. It's one of the Faux Linens that Connecting Threads had a couple years ago. The dark corners are their Faux Burlap, which is fun too.
All the blocks are now finished. Next time...flimsy!
I was never a grey person but it has grown on me recently and have now added some to my stash. These blocks look great
ReplyDeleteOh I like this! These blocks look good together every way you try them.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful fabrics. Love the printing that makes them look like burlap or woolen. At one time I had a plaid that looked like wool. It makes people look twice.
ReplyDeleteThis layout is beautiful in both green/grey and grey tones. Good for you!
The texture is really interesting. I don't imagine it would show up as it does in colours. The shapes, texture and tones play really well.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is definitely meant to be a more subtle section. I am just thinking now that I will have to be careful that the quilting plan doesn't overshadow it...
DeleteThanks, Jillian!
I am also a big fan of geay!
ReplyDeleteLove the faux texture on the fabrics. The subtle shades of grey create an interesting design.
ReplyDeleteWow that was a fast bit of piecing! I like what you did! If you use a grey thread to quilt it, you will have the subtle theme continue and have a bit of texture to enhance the modern style piecing.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Terry! Faster than you think, because the flimsy is finished! I was thinking of green for the quilting thread, but grey is definitely a consideration too. I don't want to overpower the grey blocks!
