It's a slow process. I'm posting again because several mentioned wanting to see more progress.

I decided to work from the bottom right and back.

The general idea....

and so far... many blocks could change. Photos help me make decisions.

That's gorgeous so far Karla! About what size is this going to finish at?

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.

Small, Rachel, about 25 by 40. The blocks are 5" finished. I can adjust if I need to--to get the effect I want, but it'd be an awkward size.

I'm leaving in 30 min to drop my quilts at the show. I'm excited/nervous.

Tam--I'm not an orange person myself, but I love Fall--sooo I had to use it. I did just receive the most beautiful light orange batik in the mail yesterday--it's unbelievable. It's called apricot or honey--I have to check to see which it is. I want to order more and wrap it around me. (I only bought a half yard.)
