Orange Crush Finished







I finished my Orange Crush quilt! I love it! It was a mystery quilt from Bonnie Hunter and her great site http://www.quiltville.com/. She is a very talented lady, and I absolutely love her stuff. She works with scraps and her quilts are fabulous. Go check it out if you haven't been there.
Anyway, this was a tad controlled on the scrappy as I had some leftovers and wanted to use them up. I made it smaller than called for, but have enough blocks left over I am going to make a preemie isolate quilt. It is a project we are working on with my church group. Feels good to have a project done. It didn't stay here long I gave it away as a baby shower gift for a dear friend.

ADORABLE colors! The combo of those pinks is very complimentary to each other! I was thinking the colors would be perfect for a baby--and then I read that you gave it away as a baby shower gift; I hope your friend liked it!

Your OC is a beauty. I am still working on mine, it needs borders, and I am liking it more and more.
Congratulations, on being a new blogger. Warning though, it is addicting.
