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.'
Vice Versa BOM January 2 blocks rectangle
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!

    I love this block (or blocks) too! It is such a clever idea! And the colour palette is reminiscent of our sand and sea!

    I love your colors!
    And I was thinking of doing the same thing for my Do Good Stitches Bee -- only I'm not the quilter until March!

    I love chartreuse! It's one of my favortie colors but so often seems to be misunderstood.

    What a fun color scheme. Can't wait to see what the final quilt looks like.

    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.
