When I first envisioned this a year and a half ago, I had no idea how much I would like it. My purpose was to get rid of some scraps. I figured it would be a good guy quilts. When I finished the topI was pretty excited, I loved how the different shades of gray played together and my boys thought it was pretty cool too.
Now that the quilting is done (just simple straight lines a 1/4″ from each seam) and my Josh sleeps with it, I love it’s simple beauty.
Linking up with Sarah to celebrate the compilation of Shades of Gray. Have a great weekend!
Great effect, love the different shades of gray. Super guys quilt. But when I think of it, could be super for us girls too.
Greetings,

That looks great. Wouldn't it be fun to do one in each color?
It is lovely… and great for a male. It is amazing how interesting a quilt can be made in one color scheme.
this is a lovely finish! I also like all those shades of gray…hugs, Julierose
Love your shades of gray. Very masculine.
Hi Emily – Great quilt – very modern looking. Hey, I went through your son's checkout lane at D.I. on Wednesday – did he tell you?
It's gorgeous!
Love how your wrote that 'simple beauty'. Scrap quilts don't have to involve every color in order to be fabulous.:)
I love the simplicity, yet the hues of grey also give it a complexity too!
I like Needled Mom's suggestion of making these in different colours!
I really like that quilt.
Oh, Em, that is just gorgeous! What a great idea! Whoop whoop!!
Wow! Who knew gray would do that – it's just wonderful! blessings, marlene

Love this quilt!
Oooo…nice.
Such a nice variety of different shades of gray. Especially the blue grays.
A fun way to use up scraps, and a great collection of grays to boot!
