I finished binding this quilt last night. Hooray for a little love and brightness in this little corner of my world! The smog here has been horrible. So between gray skies, cold temperatures, and frustrating news stories, a little more love is in order.
I saw a similar quilt with this block some time ago and found a good tutorial for it. I was toying with the idea of using several different cream colored background squares, but then decided on gray. Then, I realized I might not have enough gray, so I alternated gray and white. I think it turned out pretty cute.

The quilting is all straight line with my walking foot. It went pretty quickly since it is a small quilt. Once again, I used a lot of different fabrics from my scrap mess, I mean, scrap basket(s).

What a neat idea for a quilt! I used to love to do cross stitch, but never thought of translating it into a quilt design. I really like how you used the alternating gray and white squares. They add so much depth to the design. A perfect project for February and for spreading love!
