Well, on the design wall at least.
I came across Jeni B's pattern called "Arithmetic" and thought that it could be quite a handy pattern to have.
You see in the pattern there are tables for 2.5 inch, 4.5 inch and 8 inch squares, in six different sized quilts. SIX!
I had 17 fat quarters I could use (two of them are a bit panel-like so I'm keeping them for the backing) and also decided to throw in some of the million metres of grey I have in my stash. I bought the pattern at lunchtime today, came home tonight at about 8.30 pm, pressed the fabric, cut the squares, and less than 2 hours later I had most of them laid out on the design wall.
And so far I like it.I really like it.
Wish I had a wider design wall though.
It’s looking soooo good!!
ReplyDeleteI was looking at the pattern too, good choice! And perfect for those fabrics. I've used grey in my last few quilts, and am loving it more and more!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love it. The addition of the gray really works well. I really like the way you play each color and pattern off the next one. This is going to be a really beautiful quilt. Good job!
ReplyDeleteMichelle,
ReplyDeleteYour cross quilt is awesome! Have a great day.

It looks great. It's going to be fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about doing a cross quilt for ages so thanks to the pattern link.
Oh, I love this! The colours and patterns of the fabric are just PERFECT for this design. This is totally the sort of quilt I could see myself making. In my mythical land of "one day", heh!
ReplyDeleteI really like the colours and design of this. It looks great.
ReplyDeleteooh it's gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I like it! I need to check out Jeni's patterns. I am planning to do one of Cluck Cluck Sew's cross patterns with an American Jane jelly roll--love those cross patterns!
