Early morning photo-shoot of my red postage stamps quilt. Have to beat the sun in the race for the display wall at my terrace. This is a small one, just 40" by 50" quilted on leftover quilters dream request batting joint together by zig zag to a big enough piece. The backing is a lovely sarah jane nautical alphabet print. It inspired me to try free motion letters in the quilting. The rest of the quilting was playful, too. Just rows of scribbling. And a first try at orange peel pattern in the squares (they are 2" cut and 1.5" finished size. It has been washed and dried, is crinkly and ready to find a new home...
Wish you a lovely weekend! They are forecasting a rainy sunday, here. That might be a good opportunity to keep working on my scrap busting...

Hei!! Dette var en kjemperfin Quilt !! Jeg samler kvadrater til en post stamp Quilt, men det tar tid!! Så smart løst!! Håper du forsatt har sol!! Anne Kari. :-)
That's lovely! The weather is so much cooler here too - stitching weather! Take care, Byrd
Very pretty and cheerful. Love the orange peels, and the shot of the kitty - how cute!
beautiful!!!! I love all that red.
I love your scrappy square set off by the red. Your quilting looks great! I always thought orange peel would be difficult. Now I'll have to try it!
LOVE this quilt!
Gosh that's lovely--such a great way to use scraps, and the red is perfect! I'm going to pin this (and hope I can remember to give it a try)~!
I like it a lot! The scrappy squares look so cool.
It's wonderful, I love scrappy and the quilting looks great.
