It currently measures 56 by 66 inches. I will likely add a 2 inch border for a finished size of 60 x 70. I may not finish in time for the H2H deadline, but either way, both of the orphan blocks quilts will find their way to the charity Happy Chemo.
I'm joining the lists for Mrs Sew and Sow's Scraptastic Tuesday–be sure to check out the fantastic quilt she made, starting with some orphans–and WIP Wednesday on Freshly Pieced.

That looks really nice!!!!!! That black background really brings them all together.
I like the way the color turns out on the dark backround. Very pretty.

Great orphan quilt ! Hope you had as much fun as I did making mine - thanks for the mention! Thanks for linking up to #scraptastictuesday
Love the dark background - gorgeous!
I love the idea of putting all your orphan blocks together! The way you've worked them, I don't think one could even tell that it wasn't originally planned that way. The end result hopefully made the stress worthwhile.
This is coming along really well. Love the geese flying north and south. So much to look at.
Thanks for sharing it.

It looks even better than I imagined, and I thought it would look great! I hope the stress is greatly reduced shortly.
I love this quilt!!! Using the flying geese between the columns really makes it look like a totally planned quilt! I love it!!!!!

Very pretty. You did a great job getting all those blocks together. I know what you mean about sewing something simple when you are stressed.
Love what you've done with the orphans.
I really like it, Sophie. You had a lot of orphan blocks. Thanks for sharing. Hope life destresses for you.
Stitching calms me, too - the hum of the machine, the feel of the fabrics . . . lovely quilt top, btw.
