    I do believe wildyard wants to do a trade with some of us or even sell the orange fabric. I'm going to trade with her if I have what she wants.

    1) Gift them to quilters. I wouldn't care what color people gave me if I knew someone like you. 2) Make up little packages of them and sign up for the Secret Pal swap on here and send a package out each month with some in it. 3) Best of all, take the suggestions here and really think about them. They were great!

    The blocks are very pretty. Can you post a pic of the quilt ? Or did I miss seeing it. I bet it is very beautiful !

    You slipped this message in while I was typing mine. GREAT suggestion. I'll do it with her too if she decides to do that. :)

    Dye them in your washing machine---very hot water and Tan Rit dye. This will dull the brightness but keep an eye out, you don't want them to stay in the machine too long.
    I've used this method before and it really works.
    Good luck, Kutnso

    Orange is one of my favorite colors and I could think of so many things to use it in. I Like all the suggestions that I have read on here so go with it and you will be suprised.

    I sure could have used them right before Christmas when I was making my son a Florida Gators quilt. I had a hard time finding oranges and had very little in my stash. Use it to make a quilt for another Gators fan.
