A few months ago the Moda Bake Shop sent out an email asking previous contributors to submit block designs for a row quilt. (We submit the designs and they write up the tutorial and make the quilt - how easy is that?) I submitted a few designs and when I didn't hear back from them, I figured they weren't chosen. Then a friend congratulated my on being part of the Trifle Dish Sew-Along. ??? Turns out the Orange Peel block was selected! I love that block and would like to make a whole quilt out of them someday. Another friend is making an Orange Peel quilt out of her collection of Anna Marie Horner fabrics and it is Gorgeous!
If you would like to sew along all the details are here. And here is the Orange Peel Tutorial.
Oooo congrats!! I love that block!!!
ReplyDeleteYay! I love orange peel blocks.
ReplyDeleteLeila the instructions for the orange peel block on the Moda sight says to cut out 24 orange peels which would make a total of 6 blocks but the row is calling for 8 blocks which would need a total of 32 orange peels. Either there is a typo on the Moda sight or a miscalculation in the directions.
ReplyDeleteSome quilters have never made orange peel blocks so could be a bit confusing.
