Squirrely Trish

 

Created for Project Quilting This or That Bonus Challenge. Orphan blocks is one of my favorite quilt types. So I decided to go with that here. However, as I went through my orphan blocks, I realized I'd already used alot of them this year. Orphans in Pink and Warm Orphan Ombre were both created for Project Quilting this year. So, I decided to make some blocks. My first mistake was trying to plan them so some were light and some were dark because I saw light coming across the quilt. Wrong idea. Make some blocks, then decide how they fit. Better idea. Also take some of those too boring blocks and cut them up and make them into new blocks. Definitely better. 

I added a textural tree because I love them and it adds an extra dimension to the quilt. And also some little squirrels cut from the bundle fabric and fused on.
