Orange Crush in Person


These are my fabrics for Bonnie's *Orange Crush* mystery quilt. I had such a lot of fun choosing these fabrics. The blues are for the accent - I bought several because I couldn't narrow it down to just one choice.

The scrappy 4 patches look quite co-ordinated here but they are actually just a mix of scraps. The only effort I made to match them was to include some dark browns and blacks in the last few strips.

I'm looking forward to the next clue :o)

  1. Lisa, love your fabric choices and esp the blue for accent, your 4 patches do indeed look coordinated, I'll post the photo of my 4 patches tomorrow.
    Been reading the ionstructions for Cathedral stars - it uses even more of the same size 4 patches.
