New Quilt Start + Winner of Book Review Tuesday

I have started, on the second quilt, I am making for my friends children (the 1st one being the Pushme, Pullme Quilt). As mentioned, in my last post I have fallen in love with the X & + Block. These will be blocks in the new quilt – colors being blues, greens, reds, oranges and yellows.  Xand+Blocks_Quilt2

My goal for ” A lovely year of Finishes” in December is to have 4 rows of the individual blocks sewn up (the quilt will have a 6 x 8 block format).

      It has so much diversity. I saw a great version of this the other day on interest with aqua’s/teals as the background – it was fantastic.

        Oooh I’ll have to have a look for that! At the moment I have the Les Amis brown and orange colourway with brown/orange/cream blenders put aside to eventually make this.

    The x-pluses seem like such a pain in the rear but I KNOW for a fact they are addicting! So funny that you found them so too. This quilt will be such a cheerful fun riot of color. I love where it is headed so far!

      Thanks, they sure do but I was surprised how easy they actually were. Hope things are going well for you 🙂 I am sure you are super busy with Christmas and all.
