Black/White and Blue?



I joined the Black and White Challenge awhile back and to date I've only been able to make my favorite black/white and red . . . I do so love that color combination! Well, this year I plan to break away from my favorites and explore black/white with every color in the rainbow by adding one of each as the project progresses . . . we will see how I do. For this project, I chose to participate in the Super Bowl Strip Twist Challenge and I did cut up the strips and much later completed the blocks as shown in the picture. The pattern is one of Bonnie Hunter's called "Strip Twist"! More info can found at her website http://quiltville.com/striptwist.shtml . . . Click onto the title and it will take you to the Black and White Challenge Blog . . . there is also a logo on this site! Take a look at the beautiful projects there . . . get a cup of coffee or tea or whatever and a snack and sit back and surf that blog . . .
