Lattice quilt block
X marks the spot! The Lattice quilt block is really gorgeous and super simple to make for any beginner in quilting. It is widely known as the X quilt block!
Cutting Instructions for the Lattice quilt block
Always be careful of the colors you are choosing. They can easily mess up your block or quilt, or on the contrary, make it shine! I prefer to make a test block before cutting pieces for the whole quilt.
Always remember FINISHED SIZE means the size it will be in a completed quilt. The measurements given already include the ¼ inch allowance.
*SQ = Square/Squares
| Finished Block Size | Cut 4 squares from Dark fabric | Cut 8 squares from Light fabric |
| 4 inches | 2.5 inches | 1.5 inches |
| 8 inches | 4.5 inches | 2.5 inches |
| 12 inches | 6.5 inches | 3.5 inches |
| 16 inches | 8.5 inches | 4.5 inches |
Names of the block
A quilt of variety, Cotton boll, Five cross, Five crosses, Lovely patchwork, The quint five quilt

Block variations
Just by changing the direction of the corner squares or adding different fabrics, you can create a totally different looking quilt block. You can use the same tutorial to make these blocks too. Some of these variations may even deserve their own tutorial because they look so beautiful.
