Soy Amado No. 21

We haven't had an orange quilt yet, have we?

Well how about this one?



I starting picking out blocks that had orange in them; whether a little or a lot, I put them all to one side.



The blocks are quite random in style but (I think) seem to work well together because of their common colour.



And bringing up the rear, we have:



And I decided with all the cars scooting around on it, for a boy it should be.

    1. Another delivery was made this week and I did ask for photos of quilts on beds. Unfortunately the quilts had just been washed and were all in a pile but have had name labels added to them with the name of each child they belong to. Next delivery is middle June and I have asked for photos.

  13. Yes, the color harmonizes the very different blocks. The orange makes a great dominant color.It helps that some blocks have less orange than others.

  17. I've always thought orange was a happy color and this quilt sure is a happy one. The little boy who ends up with it is a lucky boy.
