I would love to know where the name for this quilt block came from. If you are new to my blog, I am currently making 200 quilts from my favorite quilt book, "Around the Block with Judy Hopkins". I want to show what each quilt block looks like when you sew four blocks together. Many times you get a secondary design with four blocks. In the Double X No. 3 quilt block, Judy used only two fabrics, a light and a dark. I chose to use four, giving the block a more colorful look.

I love the tilted look of the star with the four blocks sewn together. You don't see that with just the one quilt block. Each time I sew a new block, I am excited to see the new design with the four blocks sewn together. Double X No. 3 is a simple block.
As you can see, I had a lot of fun with the free motion quilting that I learned from Leah Day. You can take a class with Leah Day on Craftsy or go to her blog and check out different designs.

I used the Double X No. 3 quilt block to make this adorable baby quilt. Click here to see more baby quilts.
