February FAITH

It's my turn to plan the next quilt for the FAITH Circle of do.Good Stitches! I'd had several ideas in mind, but when I saw the January block for Gen X Quilter's Vice Versa BOM, I knew I'd found 'IT.'

Of course, deciding on a palette is always another issue, and after considering several, I settled on this one . . .
spring flora
A pale gray background (mine is Kona Ash), a dark gray center (shown is Kona Coal), chartreuse and aqua/teal. 
I really like these blocks and think the 'vice versa' is such a clever idea. Can't wait to see what my bee-mates do with them!

  12. Like everyone else, I think the vice versa is terrific. It is the four colors that really make it--in the olden days I think they did reversals, but it was on two color quilts.

    You ended up with good colors from the photo. I tried one of those sites once and it missed the color I'd have used as accent.But generally they reveal colors I'd not have noticed was there.
