I've been reading lately about modern or improvisational quilts....somewhere in my research, I came across this one....
Of course, I love the aqua and red.....but I had something more masculine in mind....using gray,which has suddenly been hard to find. It seems to be selling out...solid gray cotton.
I found and ordered 2 yards of "organic" gray from Fabric.com when I ordered the cotton batiste for the christening gowns...
I visited this blog for more about the quilt shown above and then made my blocks in darker colors, with some smashing bright accents and used the gray for the lattice!
NOW, to get this quilted!

Gray seems to be a hot color right now. I've always liked gray, and the way you've used it in your quilt is great.
Great colors - the grey really does something for a quilt. I'm working on a quilt using browns for sashing - I like using neutrals in quilts - helps give the colors a good background.
I love it! Thanks for letting me know! I love the grey
