My father told me that his grandmother, Minnie, used to make quilts. They were not art, he assured me, just made up of snippets of old clothes , so as not to waste fabric and used to keep warm. He remembers one, he says, all in grays and blacks and plaids. Not art, he says, not meant to be beautiful. Sounds like beauty to me. Maybe even art...

I really like the way these blocks turned out.
Great blocks! They turned out wonderful.
Pindigo is lovely! Great choice of fabrics.
NICE...
Your Ping blocks are lovely Martha :-)
This quilt looks so Japanese. They really love indigos and would really enjoy this quilt. So much of the current Japanese quilting style is more in the brown family that it's very pretty to see how you combined Indigo as well. I have a huge bunch of indigos that are beautiful and require some quilting attention very soon...
I think the indigo was an inspired choice.
Martha, these are wonderful blocks. Great job!
What a great job you did putting those blocks with the indigos; not to mention naming it Pindigo. Great!
