Black and White Flimsy

 This collection of black and white blocks from the Parts Department...

 

Grew into this assortment of blocks.


Which then became this 60" square flimsy.


Whenever I can I enjoy including little surprises into the blocks I make.


I find it challenging to create backs for quilts smaller than my usual 60" s 80." For some reason, I can wrap my brain around piecing a quilt block but not when it comes to a quilt back. So I'm quite proud of myself for figuring out a giant 4 Patch block to back this quilt.

 I had a little over one yard of the two white prints and just enough of the black to pull this off. And now I have less yardage in my stash but more scraps. This won't be the last black and white quilt coming out of The Magpie's Nest!
