X's and O's - A Mini Quilt

So I have been quite busy over the past couple of days. I figured out the pattern for the quilt that I am planing on making with the new fabric that I bought (the blue and green fabric that can be seen here).

I started out and made 4 of the blocks. I was using scraps (again) and this particular black and white print is from the days when I would make clothes.

After making the four blocks I laid them out

 but couldn't decide whether I wanted to form the blocks in the shape of an X ...

  

Or in the shape of an O.

So I decided to make 4 more blocks and combined all 8 blocks.

And here is the result - has both the X and the O!  Then I added a white border...

  

Then added an orange/rust binding.

I really like how the orange binding just pops!

 

And here is a close-up of the binding.

  

I hope that you like the mini quilt...It is just big enough to be a short table runner!

Well, I am off to finish hand sewing the binding.
 Have a great night!
