The coloring for this quilt was inspired by the large floral print in the second photo. There are quite a few prints in this quilt from the collection Freshcut by Heather Bailey. (including that floral) Of course I added quite a few more.
I made my own version of an x and o quilt. I had this idea for an X shape inside a square. I fiddled with it till I had the block just perfect to be made with a charm square and half a jelly roll strip. Then I decided to make a few O’s, which also worked out with a charm square and a jelly roll strip.
So I thought maybe I should make a simple pattern out of it, but realized after looking around a bit that there are plenty of x and o quilt patterns out there already! Yah, that seems to be how it goes for me with pattern writing!
Anyways, I like this little quilt, although it’s not colors I’d choose for myself. Funny how I like sewing lots of different color combos together, but really there’s only a few that I would choose to go with my home decor. Hopefully this little guy will be perfect for somebody’s color scheme!
I love this quilt! It is so sweet 🙂 Great colors too. I really need to get out of my comfort zone of colors!
beautiful quilt, love the vintage feel.
Absolutely gorgeous! You've captured the vintage look perfectly. Fabrics/colours …. fabulous!
Very pretty! I'm the same, every idea I come up with is already out there lol. Oh well, guess it means they were good ideas 🙂
So adorable! Love the soft vintage look!
Looks lovely – sort of a washed autumnal colour scheme.
I love it – now you've inspired me to make one!
Oh, it is so nice quilt!!! And again… I like your choice of fabrics, I love these warm colors 🙂

lovely quilt … the color choice is perfect for fall season .. !! I love it..
It's beautiful.
I love this quilt! You've inspired me to finish the quilt I made using Freshcut.
I love the vintage look of this quilt, it looks so soft and cuddly!
oh my gosh! This is way too adorable! LOOOOVE!!!
Very pretty – I love those yummy colors!!
so pretty 🙂
I love your quilts and color combinations.
You make such beautiful quilts, Jolene.
oh gosh…I am in love with those colors! Though, truly, those aren't colors I have in my house, either. Great job!
I like this a lot. Have to try that, too.
Sweet quilt; I love the colors.
I love this pattern. I haven't seem an x's and o' pattern as nice as this one (I like the x's being inside the square, instead of going to the very edge). If you aren't making a pattern, do you know of one that's similar to yours?
you have no idea how useful is this quilt for me. I just find the back fabric and decided not to use it for curtains, so I had no clue what to do with it because of its extended flower scale. Too large for small projects and for quilt pieces. And I also love the colors of the print, so it's a perfect choice to make – the back of a little quilt :). And the pattern you made is so pretty!
Gorgeous – love the colour way!
How do you do it? How can you make any combo looks this great? Love it!
So great! I am obsessed with those fabrics, and the design is wonderful!
I ADORE your little X and O quilt and would be thrilled to make one using your design block. Won't you please give us a tutorial?
The O's in this quilt are perfect! You most certainly have something here!
I haven't found any X and O quilt pattern nearly as pretty as this. I would love to make one if you wrote up the pattern, but just a block tutorial would be super. I can imagine adding a few X's and O's in with lots of other design schemes – everyone loves Hugs and Kisses! (and it's a perfect name for the pattern. 🙂
So cute! There may be lots of similar quilts out there, but you always choose such pretty and unique color combinations that make your quilts really stand out and this is no exception 🙂
