Beautifully done. I love your color combination. The blue and green have a wonderful calming effect on the orange. But, yet, the orange still sings. I love it!
I've been on a roll in pairing pink and orange together. Will now think of adding blues and greens to my oranges for a different effect.

then that first clue came up & I about backed right back out....make How Many ??? Are you kidding me....
then again I reminded myself- use some of those scraps up- that many should make a dent- so I stuck it out . Glad I did. It’s not my ( usual taste) a bit too busy for me- doesn’t go with anything I own- but I think it will make a nice gift- I do like it and maybe I just might not be as ( shy) about the next mystery that catches my attention.
