I will be honest - I do not like orange but you have convinced me that orange is a tremendous color to use in a quilt - it is vibrant, warm and blends so beautifully. Thank you for the pictures of the "stages" of your quilt - it really helps me understand that a huge quilt is just a step by step process that I can accomplish one step at a time. Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous - I can't wait to see it finished.
