Grayworks by Tula Pink is a follow up collection to her 2020 black and white collection Lineworks. Designed to fill in the spaces between black and white, Grayworks adds depth and dimension – and a classic Tula pop of color- to your quilts.
Grayworks has 8 feature prints – all animals that “live their lives in shades of grey”. From polar bears to puffins, leopards to seals, there is something for everyone in this collection. As a Canadian, it was a great feeling designing with animals that call Canada home. Yes I know, leopards don’t hail from this far north, but we are home to other large cats, so I am counting it!
By far my favorite print is the Puffin. Tula managed to represent them as both adorable and elegant, which is no small feat! (also, they have small feet, tee hee!!)

I designed two quilts for this collection. Normally for Tula I create extravagant over the top quilts with dozens of colors. For Grayworks, I really wanted designs that were accessible to all levels of maker.

First up is Cool Vibrations. I wanted to capture the feeling of the northern lights, but in a modern way. I used the Disco Stripe for my pop of color, and fussy cut all the creatures for the centers.

Next is Crossroads. It’s a fussy cut extravaganza that sews up quickly and easily. I love the Disco Stripe, and wanted to use it as much as possible.
Finally, we have a reimagining of an different pattern. This is an exclusive kit for my next cruise with Stitchin Heaven!

Arctic Party is the Grayworks and True colors version of Jurassic Party. I will be teaching this quilt on my next quilting adventure to Alaska! I am thrilled to be heading back to Alaska, and hope some of you would like to join me. It’s the time of year when the whales are migrating, so you get the amazing mountains and clear waters and sea life everywhere you look. My first quilt cruise was an Alaska Cruise with Tula, so it holds a special place in my heart. You can find more information and sign up to join me HERE!
