More black and gray

When I showed CC the design (and possible color variations) I’m thinking of doing as an upcoming mystery quilt for my quilt club, he immediately picked his favorite. And I shouldn’t be surprised. After all, he wanted the Replicator Racing quilt to be all grays, dark and light.

It was an excuse to go shopping. I ordered the black print from Fat Quarter Shop (and have ordered just a bit more now that I’ve confirmed that we both like it), and then went to my local fabric shop and found the other three companion fabrics. They should have enough contrast to make the design pop.

Of course, I’m nowhere near ready to start it – and I’ll need to figure out all of the block and piece dimensions, as well as write up the instructions, which is very labor intensive. I was originally hoping for a 2022 start for my club, but now I’m wondering if it won’t be closer to 2023. We’ll just have to see how the rest of the year goes. I also have fabrics for the main colorway I was planning to do – CC’s black and gray quilt is an alternate colorway choice.
