Cross Cut Quilt

I ran across a tutorial for this technique.  It's called Cross Cut.  (I found it on Pinterest!) It just looked so interesting!  An idea formed for the color story.  I used black and bright scraps, starting with 7 1/2 inch squares of the blacks and each 1" bright strip was around 10" long to begin.  It's really an interesting block to make!

Hey Kitty Kitty Granny Squares Quilt

A charm pack with each charm cut into 2 1/2 inch squares and a background of 2 1/2 inch squares.  I made some 16 patches, split them diagonally and reassembled them.  Each block uses the equivalent of 3 charms worth of 2.5" squares PLUS the background 4 squares.  1 1/2 inch sashing.  A 4 1/2 inch border of a medium grey print and a fluffy batting.  Baby Quilt!

I grouped like colors together.  If made again, I would randomize the colors instead.  Now I know!

Hexies Baby Quilt

I made this quilt following a tutorial on the Missouri Star WEB site.  I had the template already, since the hexie pattern is one I am very inspired by.  It is made with a charm pack of reproduction fabrics and a yard plus of Kona Snow.  I quilted it in rows and 3 columns.  I feel like I should spill some coffee on it to stain it so it looks more authentic!
