I've used it a lot in Flickr swap blocks because a lot of other people were requesting it too! I love it with gray, aqua, red, yellow, pretty much everything. It's a happy color to me and always looks sharp.SewLindaAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00658372209673891397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611779285881826866.post-24697859109733598312011-12-12T01:41:42.421-06:002011-12-12T01:41:42.421-06:00I really started liking orange recently.

I've also used it for some flower applique blocks.<br /><br />Thanks for a great giveaway and a chance to win some Gorgeous fabric.

Of course I picked to bright of one and everything glowed a year or so until I repainted it.

It has a huge white on white lattice with the bright orange as background (making me think of a sunset), a thin turquoise border (also batik), followed by more orange as the outer border. I bound it with the turquoise. This is a king sized quilt and it makes me think of vacations in the Caribbean.<br />I have used orange in a couple of other scrap quilts because every quilt deserves a bit of sparkle.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />LunachanceLunachancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17445063945529096741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611779285881826866.post-68068722257576229832011-12-10T18:31:17.222-06:002011-12-10T18:31:17.222-06:00I like orange because it is bright & bold &...I like orange because it is bright & bold & livens up everything it's used with.

One of my friends really loves orange and now I'm finding that it's a wonderful warm color that just makes a quilt sing. I'm using it in several of my "little" quilts.Bevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11997325217796562394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-611779285881826866.post-52784386385834298352011-12-10T14:49:37.691-06:002011-12-10T14:49:37.691-06:00I love orange because ditch lilies are one of my f...I love orange because ditch lilies are one of my favourite flowers.
