Modern Plus Quilt - WIP

I finished this quilt top in just a few days.  I think finishing it had more to do with having to lay out all the squares ahead of time so they don't get mixed up.  Part of me wanted the squares sewn together so they were out of the way, and part of me just wanted to see all those bright colors together to make the plus signs. That's a lot of incentive to get it done! And seeing as looking at snow and normally dreary gray skies is so common these days, the bright colors of this quilt are very refreshing. Luckily, I got a nice sunny day with pretty clear skies when I took this photo. However, it was still pretty cold standing in the snow to take the shot.

I used Jeni Baker's tutorial from her blog, In Color Order. You can find that tutorial here. Now I have to decide what to use for the back.  I know I want to somehow incorporate all the leftover scraps, so it just might take me a while to work that out.  The really fun thing will be deciding how to quilt it.
