In another thread I had asked for quilt patterns for orchids and was encouraged to get creative and do my own "pattern".

I did a test block today. The lighting isn't great for the photo. But, you get the idea. I still need to stitch it down when my machine gets out of the shop :x I plan on doing a satin stitch in a matching color rayon thread. This one is a cattleya, the next will be a lady slipper(paphiopedilum). I think I'd prefer a black background but the black shows through the lighter colored fabric.

I forgot to add, I'm doing this only from scrap fabric.
