I took the orange squares and cut them in one direction, sewed a strip in, cut in another direction, sewed another strip, and so on. I used curvy seams and straight seams.
I think I would enjoy doing a whole quilt like this with solid and print fabric. This means that I need to buy more solid coloured fabric. Everyone talks about Kona solids, so I will look into that, unless anyone can tell me about another type of solids that are great to work with.
I think results in all solids would be very fun too, depending on the colours. If you were really ambitious, you could put a little embellishment in random spots on the orange sections. Perhaps a little of my 3D things.... but that is for later this week!

I personally prefer Kona because the color selection is so good and the price is excellent (compared to prints). However, I know quite a few folks like the Bella solids by Moda.
That last block looks like tree trunks. I like it.
That looks great! Nice job! I use the Kona but have seen the Moda. I just haven't tried them. I, too, like the lower price on the solids!
Love your projects! I have yet to venture much with solids. Love your curved and straight piecing.
