Make an X is part of a series of quilts where I attempted to teach myself improv quilting for my book, "Imperfect Points". This quilt was inspired by my first career as an Athletic Trainer, and one of my early mentors who used to say "when in doubt, make an X over the injury" when taping or bracing it. That bit of advice stayed with me through the years I worked as an ATC. The colors used are a nod to my college colors.
