An Orange Quilt

I had fun with orange fabrics, maybe a little too much fun. 

NOT! 

There's no such thing as having too much fun! Too much orange on the other hand could become a problem.

 

Four more Jericho Wall blocks were done this week. I now have 6 orange JW blocks with the two done the week before. 

Yep! I just had to have dots! One orange needed to be pieced in order to be big enough. It happens when one plays with scraps. 

Two more blocks are cut and waiting by the sewing machine to be set up and sewn. 

 Two more could be cut from these fabrics as I thought of making rust ones too. I like the colour rust. 

If I sew all these, the total of orange-y blocks will be 10! WHAAATT??  

So I quit. 

No more orange for Jericho! After all, it's not an orange quilt but a rainbow quilt, right? 

So worked on the crumb Chaser blocks and got two done. 

I showed this little bit of crumb a few weeks ago. Can you spot it in the above picture? 

And as usual, the 9-Patch picture. I got a little bit of light blue in. 

What's with the block on the right, you ask? Well, it can't be all work and no play, right? Haha. 

Talking about playing, we got some unexpected visitors this week. (photos taken through the patio door)

Wild turkeys visited us last winter and returned this week to show us their lovely brood. 

My cat thought he could get a little one since the mothers are too big for him. He quickly learned that mothers don't let their guard down one iota of a second.

The babies are also very quick on their long legs. It was fun to watch. No birds were harmed and the cat is fine too. Well, maybe he got a little bruise on his ego. Haha. 

That's all for me. Have a great long weekend.
