Black and White sophistication or just a great combo?

Carla at Creatin' in the Sticks has set up this great Blog Hop to start off the year. 



I decided to use one of my test quilt tops for my entry. The quilt pattern I am using is called Modern Churn and was designed by Tammy of Tamarinis Quilts (here). She has kindly offered a paper copy of the pattern to be given out to someone who leaves a comment on this post. I will draw the winners name at noon on Friday January 25th. 

I did straight line quilting to finish this off. My stash of black with white and white with black is fairly extensive so used Kona Black for my background and a selection of white with black prints for my "churns"



My finished quilt is a good size. Hubby had to stretch to hold it off the ground.

Please make sure you visit the other bloggers on this hop to see what they have created for the Black and White Blog Hop. And remember to leave a comment if you want to be in the draw for the paper copy of the pattern. Piecefully, Joanne

    That is such a nice use of the churn dash block. i love it in black and white, but think it would also look amazing with a splash of color. Nice piece.

    This is a stunning quilt using such an old traditional block. It just goes to show how quilters can make anything old, new again.

    Churn Dash/Monkey Wrench is one of my favorite blocks and was the first quilt block I made when I made an apron for a friend's shower gift 39 years ago!!

    That is one large quilt and a beauty. I love the churn dash block much more in its modern interpretations than in its class ones. This one truly is gorgeous.
