Orange Creamsicle Quilt

I have been checking my 2012 UFO list like a crazy mad woman - trying to see what all I have finished.  This  Orange Creamsicle quilt was a leftover using the scraps from my Orange Monochromatic quilt ( that is still not quilted)

I worked really hard on it and got it all quilted....


AND  are you sitting down for this? I bound it!!! I did... for real, and I didn't even need a margarita afterwards!

I quilted Butterflies in the Corners.
I love Butterflies

and then I took it a step further. I entered it in the quiltcon quilt show. I was rejected.... *sigh*

But in other news - I now have a finished quilt - a completely finished quilt......

And even better - I have finished 9 of the 12 UFO's on my 2012 UFO list. 2 still need to be quilted, one is still in a bucket.... it may move to my 2014 list....  do you have lists that far out?

I need to be more adventurous in my piecing. I love your wonky orange and white border.

Sorry they wouldn't accept your quilt. Good job on getting so many quilts finished this year.

This quilt is a 'winner' in my book. I have always enjoyed seeing your progress on it. Great quilting!
