so my design wall was pretty this week. I've done about 12 blocks in each color so far. I have no idea how they will go together, but I know orange will spark the whole quilt.
Orange is made with the energy of red, and the joy of yellow.
I found this online
Orange promotes a sense of general wellness and emotional energy that should be shared, such as compassion, passion, and warmth. Orange will help a person recover from disappointments, a wounded heart, or a blow to one's pride. The meaning of the color orange is stimulating, vibrant, and flamboyant.
There are many shades of orange, one of the prettiest to me is coral.

The block was designed by Stitch therapy.

Was never fond of orange as a kid, but it's been growing on me! These blocks are so cheerful.
I made an orange spiderweb for my eldest grandson as his "going away to college" quilt--it's his favorite color...I need to see it with either white, b&W or blues for me to like it--the peach variation is more my favorite...your chandelier is growing and it will be so gorgeous...hugs for a happy weekend Julierose
These are the cutest blocks yet. It's going to be a lovely quilt!
I had no idea about the meaning of colors! I know, a sheltered life. Heehee. Thomas' favorite color is orange. I like how your chandelier blocks are coming along. mary
What a beautiful quilt this will be! I love orange! It's such a warm and cheerful color.
Orange has really grown on me since I joined in with the RSC! I love your chandelier blocks - looking forward to seeing all the colors together!
I love orange too. I grew up in the orange groves of Southern California in the sixties. Nothing but happy, loving memories! Those chandelier blocks are so cute - and on my short list for next year.
I love orange too -- the color and the smell and the taste! Love your chandelier blocks. They're going to make a pretty quilt!
Love your chandelier blocks. I have my orange ones cut out, but only have two sewn together. Other projects need finishing and I've been doing outdoor work (and my neck knows it tonight. It was in the 40's last weekend and tomorrow is going to be in the mid-80's. No spring I guess this year.
