Orange peel quilt
Have you ever had a quilt that took for ever to make? Lol I got a few charm packs at a sewing retreat where I met Jenny Doan from Misouri Star quilt company, I bought her orange peel template ( it works great) so I started this quilt last June, the charm pack is the multi colored in the middle. It seemed to long so I wanted to make it wider. So now for the hunt for more material. I was lucking to find it but only in a fat quarter bundle so I had to buy it, then I ran out of the background cream color so I had to hunt for the same cream color . This quilt took me over 6 months. But I'm very pleased as to how it all turned out.
I quilted it part free motion and templates
it ended up being the size of a twin bed

Great idea with that sashing....will have to remember that! I'm still,working on one too....not that I've run out of fab or interfacing...just a problem with bl..refuses to sew the blocks together at the bulky part..either jogs to the side making a jag or skips stitches...dealer just shrugs shoulder ....... Am thinking of putting bl in middle of a busy road and watch an 18 wheeler crush it! Then I will finish the orange peels with my older Viking, which sews anything I give it!
