I have chosen a selection of orange and brown fabrics for my next quilt project. They are all cotton printed designer from fabric ranges by Denyse Schmidt, Kaffe Fassett and Amy Butler. They are all from stash!
I am going to call this project/quilt my Jaffa Quilt. The brown and orange color combination takes me back to my childhood where Jaffa Cakes were often a treat we were given whilst at my Grandmother's house. So long ago, and so far away, but still fondly remembered.
Oh delicious Rita! Gorgeous selection!
ReplyDeletethose colors are perfecto!! Ilove the combination
ReplyDeleteCan I come live in your stash? Fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWow beautiful colors! Reminds me of the 70's and the wallpaper on our kitchen:-)
ReplyDeleteYou must have a truly wonderful stash!
Rita, your stash must be a magical place indeed. i would like to come and gaze upon it's magnificence (whilst trying to stifle the urge to roll around in it, lest I look slightly nuts). *sigh*
ReplyDeleteInspired :-)
ReplyDeleteBut now I'm craving Jaffa cake biscuits and a packet of Jaffas to roll down the aisle at the cinema!
I love Jaffa Cakes!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea for a colour combination!
I miss Jaffa cakes! I'm so hesitant about orange in quilts, but calling it a Jaffa cake makes me reconsider, lol.

Love the colours together! And now I want a Jaffa cake... You're making miss Australia!
ReplyDeleteI have always loved the choc orange combo.
ReplyDeletejaffa cakes are a great inspiration! Do you not get them over in Aus? If not that is an absolute travesty and I think something that should be addressed in parliament!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I love those colors!!!
ReplyDeleteThe color combo on this one is terrific! Sure to be hit!
ReplyDeleteyou create the most adorable and lovely quilts...i can't wait to see this one finished...i just LOVE orange...and i'm sure as quick as you are at finishing projects (*i'm so jealous by the way*)...i won't have to wait long!!
ReplyDeleteOH Jaffa Cakes!! I fell in love with them when I studied abroad over in London and Scotland a few years ago! I even brought a couple boxes home with me, because we don't have anything like them here in the States. But I did just find something like them at the grocery store this week. I'm hoping they are the same! Can't wait to see the finished product!
ReplyDeletewhat a sweet way to remember something that looks so tasty!!! i love the color plan...those always look great together, and you are a genius with quilts so there is no way this can go wrong.
ReplyDeleteYou know me, I love food inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI've never had a jaffa but they sure look yummy. I can't wait to see your Jaffa quilt.
ReplyDeleteYour stash rocks! I need to get out and do some shopping. I can't wait to see the quilt done!
ReplyDeleteWow I can't wait to see this one!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful selection. I can't wait to see the finished project!
