Orange Beach |
For
this rainy Monday I have a bright and cheerful quilt to show you. A
sunset orange and aquamarine print from my stash combined beautifully
with a sensational aqua, orange and yellow batik that I bought last
November while visiting Orange Beach, Alabama. These medium large
prints work great with the 12” flowering snowball block from
Accuquilt.
Orange
Beach finished out at 58” square. I quilted around the edges of
each piece in orange and aqua thread. The backing is aqua and white
circles that look like bubbles.
I think it would be fabulous hanging
as wall art in a beach house, or used to snuggle for cool nights on
the sand. Either way, it says beach to me and I'm ready to go back
right now!
By the way, I found the batik at Fabrics By The Pound in
Summerdale, Alabama. Go see them if you're ever in the area and need
a nice variety of good quality fabric at excellent prices.
I think this is my favorite quilt yet, but I say that all the time, don't I?
If
you can't be at the beach,
then
surround yourself
with
colorful memories
of
sand, sun, and sky.
