Have you ever made a black-and-white quilt?

Dash of color. Actually, dashes of color.
It's up on my design wall now, and it's my go to baby quilt pattern. ;-) I've made over a dozen.
It's easy because I always have enough of the fabrics needed in my stash and can just whip it up.
Just need to find the time. Hopefully, I'll be done with it this week.
But that's not to say there aren't some incredibly striking B&W (only) quilts out there.

I've done both, and liked the results both ways. Black, white, gray also makes a nice quilt.
Late last year, we had a Black-White-Bright block swap here. If you search for and look at the thread for that, you'll find pictures of many of the blocks.

I just pieced a 1600 quilt in black/white/ivory and added about a dozen 2.5X2.5 squares randomly from a fabric that with a white background with some primary color leaves and birds. I am a color nut and this was a departure for me and I just love the way it came out. That little touch of red, yellow, green here and there makes this simple quilt so much more dynamic.
