2013 Rainbow Scrap Challenge, March, Orange, Week 2 and a 2012 RSC Quilt Finish
This 2012 RSC quilt is no longer a UFO. It's quilted with wavy horizontal lines. After a go in the washer and dryer, it finished at 62.5" x 81.5".
I like this quilt a lot : )
The colorful backing was pieced from my stash. It was time for some of those fabrics to go.
This is the second week that I have played with orange scraps. Four more 8.5" blocks and a happy scrappy house pieced using the pattern found on Bonnie Hunter's Quiltville website. These little houses are fun to make with scraps. The square in a square in a star was a new block for me.
I cut 10 more 5" tumblers and several 2.5" squares.
A couple knitted dishcloths, green and orange, found their way into the picture. Love that yummy orange one. I like to knit and watch tv at night. And eat popcorn.
To see what other's made with their orange scraps this week, go here Saturday morning.

Love your rainbow quilt - it's so bright and cheerful
Wonderful quilt. This is one of the best settings for this that I have seen. I need to clean out some fabrics for backings that way too.
