When I saw this plus quilt pattern in one of my quilt magazines. I'm sorry I can't find the one I saw it in at the moment. To say my sewing room is a mess may be a bit of an understatement. I'll post it when I find it. I knew I had to make it.
I pulled all my gray and light blue scraps and started cutting them into 2 1/2" strips with my
Go Cutter. I didn't worry about length. I just made sure they were at least wide enough for the strip and long enough to get a few of the pieces cut once the strip was made. I then sub-cut them into the needed sizes. After auditioning different fabrics for the plus signs I came up with a few reds, greens and yellows I liked. I quilted it a 1/4" from the seams to created
framed squares. My binding angel, Sherri bond it in black for me.
I just love how it looks hanging in the tree with the lovely fall leaves around it.
