Absence of color

OK, it’s not really an absence of color, but considering my love of bright colors it’s pretty close.  

This 32” square wall hanging is all black, grey, and several shades of beige/tan. It was a pattern and mini charm pack that I picked up on the shop hop I did a couple of weeks ago.  It’s basically a 36 block center - set on point - made with a mini charm pack.  Then it’s turned into a square-in-a-square using triangles.  And the whole thing is used as the center of a big churn dash. 

This was a 2 hour project including the cutting and sewing. The cream background and the black churn dash fabrics were in the stash. The black print has bees or maybe flies on it.  I'm not sure what kind of bug these are.  But is more cute than creepy.  And that little touch of yellowish beige picks up the "color" of that center block.
