I have an unhealthy obsession with orange at the moment.
It all started when I received these fabrics (more on that to come very soon) and then the need for a binding fabric to bind the quilt I am making with them.
I couldn't find what I was after so I decided to print it. Easy, huh?
While I have been working on that quilt, all I can think about is orange, orange and more orange.
Consequently I have been trying out my designs in orange...
...and I absolutely love them.
I guess it is no surprise I can be so easily swayed, as at one time I couldn't look yellow in the eye and we all know where that has got me.
I'm pretty sure this love affair will be around for some time yet and having printed all 3 now 2 I'm now undecided which to use on the binding... scruffy daisy or tiger stripes...what do you reckon?
And if you have your own orange crush going on at the moment I've put together these 3 fabrics as a nice sunshiny summery set in the shop...it's right here.

Karen, I am so impressed with your recent screenprints - you have such a good eye! I personally love stripes on a binding :)
I'd say use all 3 for the binding! Make it scrappy. Loving the orange!!!! =D
