I too am working through my stash and like you, am sick of shopping my stash.I like the comment of dying some of the stash - maybe a bit of creativity will help. Maybe a swap would be the answer.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05984343627383325692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033463089097940392.post-36692667170181145992010-03-21T15:49:49.816-04:002010-03-21T15:49:49.816-04:00I love your quilts...Funny enough, I never made an...I love your quilts...Funny enough, I never made an orange quilt.<br />MickiMickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09075827547379051762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033463089097940392.post-30487537688639527612010-03-21T14:31:55.791-04:002010-03-21T14:31:55.791-04:00Looks great.

An extra step but I almost enjoy the making of the fabric to the making of the quilt. One thing for sure is you will never see another piece like the one you make. http://fabricdyeing101.blogspot.com/ Everything you need to find out to get started.

I thought ...Your orange and white quilt is lovely!<br /><br />I thought *I* didn't have any orange in *my* stash. Until I heard it's my grandniece's favourite colour - and then I saw it everywhere! LOL <br /><br />Isn't this weather glorious? I saw a robin yesterday, and again today. And I think we're heading to the Lake Grill for brunch on Saturday.

I am noticing how neat and tidy those shelves are behind that last quilt. The weather report here is that it has been a nice day. Pleasant.

Just enough color to make an impression:) I have a feeling you won't need anyone to keep you from buying orange.<br /><br />The weather here is drizzly and cloudy and hasn't been out of the 50's much. The next couple of days are supposed to be nice, though.

It has never been a favorite but it is good in small doses to me. We all have such likes and dislikes don't we. The quilt as you made it looks great though. We have been in the 60's mostly here and it has been feeling good - I could do without the little bugs that are coming back though now that it is spring.<br />Karen<br />http://karensquilting.com/blog/Karen - Quilts...etc.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07293429657903986492noreply@blogger.com
