Juicy Orange



I’m enjoying working with the brightness of Orange this month while the weather is swinging between (mostly) Winter and Spring here in Calgary.  Last night I worked on orange Paintbox blocks (Quilt Along at Oh, Fransson!) for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.

I then finished up the little heart blocks that I started on last week, here’s a close-up of one luscious orange block.

Please take a moment to wander over to soscrappy's blog and see what others are doing with orange.

When you squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out - because that's what's inside. When you are squeezed, what comes out is what is inside.  ~ Wayne Dyer

  1. Love the orange blocks! Expecially like the hearts... looks like you are using different prints of white for the background and frames. I love that - I do that. It gives more texture. Thanks for sharing.
