The combination of colors and angles really sing and your quilting really enhances that.<br /><br />I am blendadextrous, using solids and prints willy nilly, with a healthy helping of solid-reading blenders to keep from getting too off-kilter. I agree with The Momma's comment that grunge is great, but pricey!Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06306854459459257368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311599214954370370.post-23367110338502631392017-05-18T02:47:34.016+02:002017-05-18T02:47:34.016+02:00I am a solidaphobic.

That improv pattern is a great test for practicing solid choices.

Any attempt usually ends up as a dust rag on the way to the trash bin! (I do dust, see?).

I made an entire (huge!) lap quilt with solids for my oldest son a few years ago, and I have plans (and the fabric) for another solids only quilt at some point. I do love the grunges, too, thanks to you! (and my girls do too) but I hate that they are so pricey and seem to rarely go on sale. I have a ton of charm squares from when I tested your pattern, and I must say, I treat them like fabric gold :-)the mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06442659609532682275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7311599214954370370.post-71884316688866366812017-05-17T15:30:47.992+02:002017-05-17T15:30:47.992+02:00This is a gorgeous pillow!

I'm not a huge fan of solids, but I recently made the Postcard From Sweden quilt top made from ALL solids and really love it. Now I have a ton of solid scraps that will need a few projects.

I used to stay away from solids too and although I still buy mostly tone on tone and low volume fabric I find myself turning to them more and more. I LOVE grunge, I'm with you there.Kate @ Smiles From Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17525561534884021883noreply@blogger.com
