soot&ashes

had a very creatively productive day yesterday.... worked up quilt tops for new quilts October, November & December... played around with additions to the Folkart Gathering
the new fabrics that were purchased on my shopping expedition inspired soot&ashes.... a sampler quilt in shades of black and a shirting fabric background.... thought that i would share the quilt with you on a block by block posting, with measurments so you can if you make it along with me ....
i rarely buy more than 1/2 yard cuts, so that i need to makedo if i run out, so that amount should work for we all that much in our stash i'm sure.... and if not, makedo!
i plan on using about 5 different shades of greyish blacks and the same light print background.... but i do tend to change my mind as the quilt progresses... a quilter's prerogative!
