WiP + Purge
I like to do a bit of hand quilting here and there. There is no rush for the Orange peel QAL project but I felt like working on it. I finished the quilting today and I love it.
I haven't ironed the marking off yet. It is cushion cover to become.
I also like the orange peel quilting on squares. I used it on quilt called Ooh la la which I made last year. It makes the square look more acceptable, lol.
You can see the quilting better on back side. These squares also started the idea of cutting all scraps into squares and make Purge quilt.
You can see what the usual scrap drawer look like and one with already cut squares. I precut bigger scraps into 7.5cm square size and some into 7cm strips. We'll see with how many I end up. As you can see I still have some work to do.

I love your Orange Peel block, very creative with the mix of hand quilting and great colour choices.
ReplyDeleteI love the hand quilting! I've never been brave enough to attempt it myself but I'm a fan :)
ReplyDeleteI love the hand quilting on your orange peel cushion cover. It looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe orange peel cushion quilting is super delightful. I do like how the orange peel dresses up the 'boring' squares, too. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is an orange peel post - two different kinds of orange peels contained herein! Both very pretty - especially those tone on tone orange peels in the cushion project :D
ReplyDeletePurge quilt sounds fun, and scrapbustingly worthwhile! I'd need a 2 year long Purge, lol! If it got continued after mid-September I'd join in - this is the first time I've read the details :D
Ohhh so pretty, love love love that top piece.
ReplyDeleteOMG! Your orange peels! Love the ghosties! :)
ReplyDeletethat is very cute!!! :) are the squares hand quilted or machine?
ReplyDeleteLove both your orange peels!! My orange peel quilting always looks like banana peels so I haven't tried for a while. I really want to make a Purge quilt too but I have so many things to do already!
ReplyDeleteI really like both of these, but the hand quilting on the orange peel is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteLove your Orange Peel idea, beautiful! I need to work on sorting my scraps, your process is looking good.

ReplyDeleteOoh, your hand quilting is the perfect touch for that cushion cover. Love, love, love your design!

ReplyDeleteYour scrap drawer now looks like mine! I'll have to try the orange peel quilting on my next scrappy square project.
ReplyDeleteI love the orange peel cushion and have already seen it popping up on Pinterest!
I love the look of your hand quilting! And, your scrap drawer looks exciting. Your purge quilt will be beautiful. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe hand quilting on the cushion cover looks great. I am looking forward to seeing the finished cushion.
ReplyDeleteI love your orange peels with the hand quilting - beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Orange Peel quilt. The colours are perfect and your quilting is exquisite in it's simplicity. Your orange peel quilting on the squares is wonderful. The quilt looks as good on the front as it does on the back. I like the idea of cutting up your scraps into squares. I might just do that with my own scraps.
ReplyDeleteLove all your rainbow quilts!
ReplyDeleteI love, love the hand quilting on the pillow top! It is such a great combo with the orange peels
ReplyDeletetak ty tvé lístečky jsou naprosto úžasné ...
