This is one of two quilts that I submitted for a Black and White challenge. Since all of the quilts submitted have been accepted, I decided to post mine. To make this quilt, I drew the different swirls onto freezer paper and then I sewed the pieces to each other, folding back the paper each time so that I was not sewing on the paper - just using it as a guide. After I appliqued the black to the white background, I sewed black cording to all of the raw edges.
You can see the cording on the edge of the black pieced swirl. I don't work in black and white as a rule but I had quite a few tone on tone black fabrics after collecting for 27 years. It was good to be able to use some of them.
