5 "Cross" Blocks from Tula Pink's "City Sampler"

I completed 5 cross blocks from the "Crosses" chapter of Tula Pink's City Sampler: 100 Modern Blocks, which happens to be the first chapter:


I guess I like to do things backwards.  My favorite block from this section is block number 1 - the very first block to appear in the book!


5 blocks + 65 blocks = 70 blocks, which means I'm done making blocks!   I am using the layout "Sliding Scale" (page 250 of the book), to assemble my blocks.  It also allows  for less exact-ness. 

Even so, I'm nervous about cutting the lattice properly.  This is my first quilt top with a lattice, and I am afraid I won't be able to cut out the long strips evenly.  We'll see how it goes...
