Progress......
It was a fun day with the art quilters yesterday. I had them vote on whether I should use the white background or black background strips between the columns and the majority liked the white ones. I sewed this part together last night and now I have to piece the black strips for the borders because they aren't quite long enough. I am glad to have these blocks off the shelf and finally made into something.
I also finished cutting and designing for this one and sewed 2 more columns together and have 3 columns left to sew. I have decided that it will be a wallhanging and will have facings instead of binding.

I find the second one stunning and think facings is the perfect choice!
I'm glad you're going with the white, yesterday with the white as sashing and the black as border was really wonderful.
Really like this creative way to use up a scrap stash - the graphic black/white is a good contrast to the piecy vibrant colors. A fun quilt!
Right now, the second quilt is calling my name. It's very peaceful to me.
Your quilts are GREAT! I love color, it drives everyone crazy. Sure keeps me from getting bored with say only several colors in a quilt. thanks for your pictures of what you've been making.
I really like the second one. It seems so out of character for you! I didn't realize how small it is until I see the comparison of the sewn and unsewn columns.
Two fantastic pieces! They're quite different, but each is just perfect in its own way. I love them both very much! Thanks, as always for sharing.
