Orange you glad it's Saturday?

A nice bowl of oranges to get you in the orange mood!


First off - I prepped some orange peels for hand work this month. I seem to have a good selection of orange in the closet now thanks to this challenge over the last year or two.


Then I made my snail's trail blocks. I think these are my favorite so far.... very strange since I prefer purple to orange. Maybe my taste's are changing?


A shot of all the snail's so far this year - pink, purple and orange.


Head on over to SoScrappy's blog on Saturday and see what other projects are being worked on this weekend in the rainbow challenge.

Beautiful orange going on here, Deb.
Especially the snail blocks!
I understand what you mean about orange. I told my mother this morning that I didn't care for orange until I started this rainbow challenge last year. Now I love orange.

I am starting to like orange more too, strange how tastes change. Your snails trails are looking great as a collection.

The Snails Trail blocks look so good - and it looks like the color changes will make an interesting secondary block!
