I have been seeing some AMAZING cross quilts on-line, and I wanted to share some of them.
Betty Whoosh did this striking red and white quilt.
Betty is no stranger to the Cross Quilt. A look at her lovely blog turns up MANY of them. She must be one fast quilter!
Miammi made this bold aqua and orange one
Jaquie from Tall Grass Prairie Studio shared this whimsical masterpiece
Mrs. Sorrells made “Me Plus You”
She has a quilting blog as well.
It is very interesting to me, so see how much the different artists play with the structure. Some are precise, and some are intentionally “wonkey”, and some are just “off the ranch” completely. And with each departure, the balance shifts, and the eye moves. They are all fabulous!
Is it time for a cross quilt? Yes, it may be!
