little quilt monday~~~X and + mini quilt


Little Quilt Monday

I am working on my X and + mini quilt for a OKCMQG challenge using Madrona Road fabric.
The tutorial for this block can be found here at Badskirt.

I have wanted to make this block since the first time I saw it, but it has been on my
list of many things that I want to make : )  As it turned out, it was the block of the month
for our guild in March.  So this seemed like a great way to try out the quilt block and work
on my mini quilt challenge!

X and Plus quilt block

It is a great scrappy block and I now know that I will make it again.  That is one of the fun things
about mini quilts....you can try something first to see if you like it.


I have added linen borders and I put the quilt block off-center.

As you can see, I am quilting with big stitches using embroidery thread.
I do enjoy those big stitches!

Now it is your turn to link up something to

Little Quilt Monday

1.  This link-up party is for any small project.  For example, mini quilts, doll quilts, baby quilts, place mats, mug rugs,
wall quilts, table runners, etc.

2.  They can be a WIP(work-in-progress) or finished.

3.  If it is something from the past there is no need to write a new blog post, just link the one that you have already written, and, please link back to my blog post.

4.   If you are interested, you can add your pictures to my flickr group here, or join my Facebook group here. 

Let's inspire each other!
