I made grey and brown blocks. It was hard not to add sunset strips. |
My art quilt group, STITCH, issued a little challenge last month: Make something with our two least favorite colors. We revealed the results yesterday, and they were heavy on grey and brown. I'm not sure what I'm going to make with my blocks, but I'm pretty sure they'll be combined with something more uplifting that involves brighter colors.
Janet and Judi dressed in grey and black. |
Judi translated her B&W waterfront photo into fabric. |
Janet did this geometric study in black and grey. |
Janet's brown tree in a very grey-black-white landscape. |
Anne doesn't like brown and pink, but I love this piece. |
Pat didn't like this batik, but we like her fabric Valentine postcards. |
Carol used purple and a dark green that she didn't like. |
Delaine didn't like this orange ... |
... nor did she like the color of the purse lining. |
Barbara's challenge was working with brown. |
Lois doesn't like to use brights, so this was a real challenge for her! |
Next month's challenge will have to do with spring poetry, so stay tuned for those results.
Have a colorful day

I love the results of your challenge! It's always good to stretch and go outside our comfort zone a little... looks like you all accomplished this!
Interesting concept: Colors I don't like. You are all braver than I am and I love the results!
Well, this is pretty funny. One person's hate is another's love. Yes, I rather love your grey and brown quilt, my dear, but that should come as no surprise. Will be fun to see how you jazz it up as you put those blocks together.
