Crisscross Baby Quilt in Dewdrop!

This post may contain affiliate links. Thank you for your support!


I have been on a quilting-kick the last couple of weeks and just finished another stunning quilt.  This design is Crisscross, an old-fashioned modern quilt pattern that is super quick and easy and includes 8 quilt sizes.

This is the Baby size, sweetly displayed on my grandson's crib.  :)

The Crisscross quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.


Say hello to Crisscross!


If you are someone who is looking to gain more experience under the needle, then Crisscross would be the perfect pattern to start with!  Crisscross has easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions, charts, and diagrams for cutting and piecing this marvelous quilt.

Crisscross is partially strip pieced to help speed up the process and even helps with accuracy.  Select three fabrics in the same colorway with an accent.  If you are looking for a quick and simple design to work with, then give Crisscross a try!




Includes 8 sizes


The Crisscross quilt pattern includes 8 sizes in all - Baby, Throw, Large Throw, Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, and King.  So if you are looking for a quick and easy design with lots of size options, then this is the pattern for you!

The Crisscross quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.




Lovely Fabrics


For this quilt, I used the Dewdrop fabric collection by Windham Fabrics and Kona Cotton White.  Dewdrop is an older fabric collection that came in a rainbow of fabrics, each made with several hues of the color along with metallic gold flecks that adds a bright sparkle.  For this quilt, the black and gray prints were selected to make this quilt stand out.  I made this quilt in the Baby size, which measures approximately 42" x 51".  The binding is also from the Dewdrop collection.  The backing is Basic Shades in Granite by Riley Blake Designs, available here.




Longarm Quilting


I quilted Crisscross using Maze by Keryn Emmerson, available at IntelligentQuilting.com, using Superior Omni thread in Light Gray.  This was quilted on my HandiQuilter Amara with ProStitcher.

The Crisscross quilt pattern is available in the Busy Hands Quilts shop.
