Orange Jelly Roll Quilt

Yesterday was National Jelly Roll Day….did you spend some time sewing with one? I sadly did not, however I was happily quilting another customer quilt. So instead, I will share this customer quilt with you.

I have always loved the colour orange so when I received this quilt to work on I was pretty excited! The orange Cuddle fabric for the backing is absolutely perfect for this quilt.

Many of my customers request that I choose the quilting design for their quilts and I am often asked how I decide. Often a quilt will immediately speak to me with clues in the fabrics or in the piecing. In this case I used the pantograph Gravity as I loved the oval shape in it to compliment the ovals in some of the fabrics.

I also knew that the design would really stand out on the backing.

The quilt ready for pick up. Most of my customers take me up on receiving their quilts trimmed and ready for binding.
