The X And O quilt pattern is a classic design loved by quilters of all skill levels. Its simple yet

eye-catching effect.

Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the X And O quilt pattern holds symbolic significance. The X (cross)
symbolizes unity, love, and the coming together of different paths. The O (hug) signifies warmth,
affection, and embracing connections. Combining these symbols in a quilt reflects the desire for harmony
and loving relationships.
