x and plus quilt

over and gone, over and gone
summer is over and gone

This is the undisputed End of Summer. It’s Labor Day, and we are done with it. Looking back is seems substantially long and full, and I wonder what I’ll make of it all the the coming weeks.

In a way that is more fitting than usual, I am finishing up summer projects at the end of the summer. I won’t talk about the two knit projects that ended sadly without enough yarn—I’ll just focus on this quilt.

Little x and + (plus) quilt, you were fun! I started you for no good reason, I used up a ton of scraps (including some of my favorite white prints – Heather Ross fishies, Liberty, My Folklore!), and I find you adorable. You are much less scrappy than others’ versions because as it turns out, I am just a little tight. You are sitting on one of the wing chairs, even though you don’t look like you belong there.

Pattern here at badskirt, for of course.
