'X' Blocks "4 x 4" Small Quilt Top Finished, November Butterfly

Pressing and trimming squares for X blocks.

November butterfly from my butterfly calendar.

'X' Blocks, liberated style, ready to sew rows together.

Beautiful fall picture out the front door.

Happy Weekend!!!
From Salem, New Hampshire.
Didn't this week fly by?? Time goes fast when you're busy.

I got 'X' blocks pieced and sewn into rows to make my little X's & O's quilt top, 3 blocks by 4 blocks.
Each block is approx. 4" x 4", so the little quilt top measures 12" x 16".

The weather was clear and bright so we went out to a local coffee shop for lunch.
Great coffee and BLT's.

Thanksgiving week coming right up. Don't we have a lot to be thankful for?
 I look forward to stopping in to see what you've done on your projects. Have a good day and remember to take time to enjoy some fall goodness where you live!

Oooh - that butterfly is spectacular! I would love some fabric in that exact shade of blue. We did coffee at our local coffee shop this week too - alas didn't succumb to a BLT, but I did sneak a peanut butter cookie (shhhhh).

The fabric you have put by the butterfly calendar match it beautifully. The quilt is vibrant with all those colours. Enjoy the grandkids, coffee and weather.
Have a great weekend.
