This is a fun and modern spin on the classic Lafayette orange peel quilt block. The pattern features 12 colors with a beautiful movement of the colors along the diagonal of the quilt.

This pattern is written for two sizes: Baby (40" x 45") and Throw (57" x 65").

Pattern includes helpful diagrams, thorough instructions, alternate color-way ideas and a coloring page to plan your quilt.

This pattern is traditionally pieced. Templates are provided for the curved pieces. I recommend cutting those out and tracing them onto a sturdy surface such as cardboard or plastic template paper.

This pattern requires LOTS of hand cutting and curved piecing. Templates are included for both a baby and throw size block. Read more about working with templates here.

All yardage is assumed to be 42" wide. All seam allowances are 1/4".
