Progress has slowed down considerably, but I am still hand stitching more Orange Peel blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. I made close to 150 of these blocks during 2019 and don't need too many more.
Green was our color for January, and orange is February's color. I am shooting for 24 blocks in each of these colors, so I'm close to my goal on these sets. I think there are a few more finished green blocks around here somewhere--I wonder where they are hiding?
I am linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge on Saturday and with Oh Scrap! at Quilting is more fun than Housework on Sunday. I'm also linking up with Slow Sunday Stitching at Kathy's Quilts. Be sure to check out all of the wonderful projects that everyone is sharing!

ReplyDeleteOh how I love orange peel blocks/quilts. Yours are looking wonderfully zesty.
ReplyDeleteI'm usually ambivalent about gray backgrounds, but your dark grays just make those colors glow! Fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI started orange peel blocks for RSC 3 or 4 years ago and never made it past the first month of light blues. Yours look great.
