I love Orange!!! My sister says when I make something with orange, I'm having a flashback to the 60's! Maybe so. But it is a happy color. Several years ago, I made a small quilt by My Sisters and Me. I can't remember the name, the quilt is still packed up....we just moved. But it is beautiful. My highschool colors were orange and white, I grew up in Florida. So I still love it so much! My son is getting an orange and blue for University of Florida for his birthday in July! Go for it! gloria g. in Hemingway, SC
