Black and white quilt 15 minutes at a time!

I started this project a week ago.  I worked at it about 15-20 minutes at a time.  I was surprised how much you can get done when you focus on what you are doing.  I was able to work on it about 6-7 times a day. It is about 43" square.
Next time I am going to "make" my black and white fabric with one added color.


what do you think about it?

thanks everyone. ever since i saw a block online that had the geese going in a circle I could picture this quilt in my mind. I figured out how to make it and then made loads of flying geese to go around it. It was fun to make.

I wanted to post on your 15 min blog - I love that blk & white w/ one color added and have always adored flying geese! Here is what I said:
It immediately brought me back to a time last winter when I was gazing out of the window, it was so cold, so still, so bitter…. Then a lonely cardinal came and landed on a tree branch just the other side of the driveway. It was an awesome sight!! I think you need to back & bind this and call it complete!!! Thank you for that treasure of a memory!!

I love it! Your little piece of red adds whimsy. It's inspiring me to make a black and white quilt too.
