FUN WITH ORANGE, CIRCLES AND TREES!





My brother in law is a single father with two boys.  All are very into soccer so I designed a quilt and selected fabrics that incorporated that in a rather abstract way, circles.  The color orange was chosen as it is a family favorite color and the trees on the back represent the strength and stability my brother in law brings to his boys.  

This was actually a very simple pattern that went together quickly.  Each block is made of five 2" strips and I flipped the blocks when attaching to come up with the pattern.  Once fun thing about this quilt is all the stops involved in selecting fabrics.  They were selected at different times from different stores but believe they blend together well.  I kept the longarming pattern rather simple as the patterns are quite busy.
I love how the longarming
accents the back

Thank you Katie for holding
up the quilt - cute toes!
