Black and White Quilt Black and White Quilt
By: Holly Elam, Alabama, USA

I made this pattern on EQ5 for my husband’s boss. She got married in October of 2009. She had a 1930s themed wedding. The colors were black white and silver. She asked all of her guests to dress up in 1930s attire. It was fun.

Cannot Tell a Lie Cannot Tell a Lie
By: Leslie McSorley, Maine, USA

This quilt is inspired by an antique and I call it “Cannot Tell a Lie” because I made it over Washington’s Birthday weekend when I should have been working on something else! And since it is red and made in February- Of course I quilted hearts all over it.

Cranberry Bog Cranberry Bog
By: Sharon Vrooman, New York, USA

The vintage cranberry floral and tan make a dramatic look to a very simple, single block. A pantograph flower pattern was used to quilt it. I love the antique period look to this quilt making it a heritage piece to hand down.

Go Wolfpack! Go Wolfpack!
By: Jeanne McBrayer, North Carolina, USA

My blue-and-white quilt blocks are from a 90’s Internet swap. I finished the quilt after I got my Gammill in 2005. Because my hubby and I went to N.C. State, whose colors are red and white, I included the mascot in the window of the house. That’s the only way I could have a Carolina Blue quilt!

Scrappy Trails Scrappy Trails
By: Teaquilts, Missouri, USA

This quilt was presented as a mystery quilt from a local quilt shop. I loved the final look and was so glad that I decided to pull a lot of teals and purples to make this one a scrap quilt. My daughter is trying to “steal” this one from my possession, but she can’t as I use it in lectures.

Yellow and Blue Monster Yellow and Blue Monster
By: Velvor Jones, Alberta, Canada

It started as a block of the month from Along Came Quilting in Calgary, Alberta, about three years ago. I managed to keep up with the blocks every month but it languished for two years before it was completed this week. I am proud of the finished product, worth all the effort.

    This was so much fun to enter -and to spread the word about all these wonderful quilts through my FB, Twitter and Yahoo groups – wonderful compliments on ALL of them have been coming in – and many agree with me that it is so hard to choose just one! Beautiful work, everyone! I now have so many more ideas for “two colored quilts” that I am sure this will not be my last!
