Orange Peel quilt

A friend of mine was having a baby this summer.
They did not want to know the gender of the baby, so they had picked out a couple of names for 
either a boy or girl.
As we were talking about babies and such, I was hand appliqueing some orange, orange peels blocks together for a quilt of mine.  
She fell in love with the blocks and said, "If we have a little girl we're naming her Clementine."  
I thought the orange peel blocks would be perfect for a little girl named Clementine!
Well, sure enough, they had little Miss Clementine.  
I put together a few orange peel blocks for her baby quilt and this is the result...



I quilted a double bubble design and used a sweet flannel backing.





Welcome the this crazy wonderful world, Miss Clementine.
  


I used this template from Missouri Star Quilt Company for the orange peel shapes.
My background low volume squares are 
cut 6" - finishing at 5 1/2".  
I set the blocks 6 x 6 with the quilt finishing at 33" x 33".
