I like it!! I was going to add borders to the top as well, but the more I looked at it, the more I decided I liked it just as it was...
Here is the palette
This is my block......put into a top....
Ta Da - here is the whole thing. I think when I finally do quilt it ( which may be a while!!) I will bind it with the black or the yellow.... Not sure which at the moment.
For other Finished Fridays go to
or to
Have a great day!!
Awesome! What a good job with the color challenge.
ReplyDeleteThat black fabric is perfect for this quilt.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful color palette. I just love the swirly black outlinning the red.
ReplyDeletethat is too cute, where did you sign up for this color challenge? love the orange/yellow with it.
ReplyDeleteOoh love it!
ReplyDeleteI would have had a hard time with the colors too, but I am so glad to see that you pushed through. This a fun quilt with a little bit of dramatic appeal. I am thinking that this might be one that might look great with a double or triple binding look. (not real borders but more of very narrow strips like binding width.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that I would have thought to put those colors together but they really look fabulous! I guess that's what a challenge is for, though. Beautiful results!
ReplyDeleteYou did a wonderful job with this month's color challenge - great choice with the patterned black! Oh would use that to bind with for a great 'framing' of the piece.
ReplyDeleteI Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is way too cool. The black even includes the swirls in the original picture. Way to go!

ReplyDeleteWow, a finished top and still a week left in the month, I'm impressed !
