First, I tackled all of the necessary quilty math, and then I got to cutting. Sometimes I find myself really enjoying the ironing and cutting phase of quiltmaking. This was one of those times, and it's because these fabrics are just so gorgeous. This is seriously one of my favorite collections right now, it's so fresh and fun and the artwork is so beautiful. I tried my best to fussy cut some of my favorite pieces of these gorgeous fabrics, and I think I succeeded most with my elephant X. That's quite possibly my favorite block in this little quilt.
This quilt pattern is now available in my Pattern Shop, and I will also be making a girlie version of this quilt at some point for the shop as well. The Xs and Os quilt PDF pattern includes all of the information you'll need to make this quilt, including color photos and complete piecing diagrams to follow, as well as requirements for batting and binding. Two finished sizes are offered in this pattern: a 48" square baby quilt and a 72" x 96" twin size quilt.
Coming up later this week, I'll be sharing a simple quilt tutorial for my sweet girlie quilt and there will also be a giveaway some time this week, too!! Hope you all had a wonderful stitchy weekend!
