I have a heap of navy and indigo blue fabrics left over from a long term Dear Jane project. And I borrowed a new book from our local library. Of course this led to a new project.
The book is Red and white quilts:
No affiliation, just a reader.
I was attracted to one of the patterns, called Walk this Way. I am calling mine Zigzag. You sew the blocks of white and colored strips a certain way, then lay them out on the diagonal:
On the "design floor." The last row is in place but not sewed on yet. Yes that is blue fabric not black. I think it will be very graphic when done. I am halfway there. However I am running out of the white fabric, which is not unbleached muslin but has a pale yellowish cast. Must go out tomorrow and buy more.
Edited to add: a closeup of the blue and white fabrics:
Linking up with Let's Bee Social, Midweek Makers, Can I get a Whoop Whoop, Nina-Marie, Finished or Not at Busy Hands quilts, Oh Scrap at Quilting is more Fun than Housework.
I have a page on Facebook: keep up with my infrequent quilt posts at https://www.facebook.com/pages/Viridian61/347674418583948?ref=hl
