This quilt has a story. The short version is that when my granddaughter was visiting last month she climbed out of the portable crib in a few seconds flat. This required us to move everything out of her room, put the mattress on the floor and a gate on the door. With the room emptied, I decided last week to paint it and of course it required a quilt!
I decided to use my Pop Garden ~ love, love, love this line ~ and I've been saving it for something special. Inspired by the Farmer's Wife quilt along, I thought I'd make some sampler blocks and include some plain blocks of the glorious prints. After making the "x" block, I was reminded of Elizabeth's X and O quilt. Loving my "x" block, I thought why not make an "o"? And a new quilt was born.
I added some stash basics to the line including a bit of gray.
"x"
"o"
Oh and one big "X"
The paint color "Robin's Nest" by Benjamin Moore matched perfectly. BTW ~ I found the color on this fabulous blog: Favorite Paint Colors.
I couldn't be happier with my x and o :)
