A few days ago, I chopped up my black & white & brights quilt top. It was 44 x 46 inches, which is bigger than I usually work. I think I will make it into a couple of smaller tops, which will allow me to explore a variety of design ideas.
I started with the pieces that had colors, and cut some of the pieces even smaller. I decided I wanted the black lines to be skinnier, so I’m cutting those narrower, or removing them.
Here is my first re-design, pinned to the design wall. The “background” is the gray fabric on my design wall. I may use a similar gray fabric, or perhaps a variety of grays. Right now it’s about 22 x 4o inches, but will it get smaller as I sew the pieces together.

Really like that Terry! Unique..
Love it! I think you ought to leave the black lines, they add structure and a place for your eye to land. Beautiful work.
This is looking very interesting.
I love your design! I have a collection of black and white checks and dots. They always add exasperation.
