I'm using the 7.1/2 inch "X" BLOCK ruler/template by Quilt Queen.
I cut 3 @ 3.3/4 inch fabric strips for the blocks with 1 x centre I SPY block...
AND you use all cut off pieces too. They make a great border OR another block...
Once cut... you can turn the blocks various ways... & I like #2 for a border...
I made 4 blocks using the same fabric BUT with different I SPY centres.
I reversed the X Block for 2 of the blocks so I could make my chosen design.
I think the layout below would make a really great table runner...
& you could use up the off cuts in the borders as well... NO waste...
I LIKE this ruler 👍 & will use it again for sure.
I'll either follow the included layout OR add a border to each 4 block section😏.
This will eventually be a charity quilt for a child.
I hope you EnJoYeD the first S.N.O.W. day...

So nice. What I really love is that you can use the cut offs. I hate to throw anything away, and actually never do it.
YOurs looks lovely..... great ideas showcasing (and using) the ruler ..

An interesting block using the ruler… they will make a great kids quilt.
That's cool! I'd seen quilts that looked like the block you made but had no idea they were relatively simple to do.
What a great idea to use an eye spy block in the centre. It will be a very effective quilt.
OH wow! This is a great tutorial and a fun and adorable quilt!
It is a great block. Even better you are able to use the offcuts
Great work Cheryll - one day I will gt to mine..maybe
Oh wow! What fun......the 4 blocks look amazing in the layout you used. And I really like the colors you chose. Good job!
That is fascinating. Great demo.
Great tuto, for a beautiful result. I love the final layout!
So clever and I love the idea of a S.N.O.W. day ... I have a feeling I have an X block ruler somewhere.
Nice looking block - and really like the use of the cutoffs too! Will come back to see the finish! : )
