Cross and Crown Quilt Block - Traditional Quilt Pattern

The Cross and Crown quilt block is a very old and popular patchwork design that has been varied many times to form other lovely quilts.

You will find that this particular quilt block is very attractive when made in one color with white fill-ins for the pieced block and a contrasting color for the plain block which is quilted in the design.

Or use a dark color for the cross and a gold for the crown motif, a contrast that makes an eye-catching coverlet when the plain blocks are white and quilted with gold thread in the Cross and Crown stitching.
