"Orange Orchard" Quilt Completed

“Orange Orchard” 35 x 48 inches

I finished up the “Orange Orchard” quilt today. Click the link to read my post from February 27, 2025 to learn how I came up with this design.

Instead of quilting the grid, I quilted down the quilt in rows, following the green triangles. That was only doable because this is a small quilt! You can see the quilting best on the back of the quilt in the photo below.

For the binding I used a fabric which I purchased online for another project, “Wild North” designed by Gareth Lucas for Windham Fabrics. It’s an abstract and is considerably more intense than I had expected! But in a small dose, it makes a lovely binding!

The back of the quilt is a 1930’s reproduction print which I have had for years. Just perfect for this project.

And it turns out I have a chameleon for a dog! He definitely is the perfect color for the background of this quilt!

Mine??
