Charm Bracelet Quilt

  I have seen so many of these quilts online, that I was not sure of the source.  I googled the "Charm Bracelet" pattern and found Kate Conklin's pattern.  Our very own  Amanda Murphy from Charlotte, has something similar.  I did not use a pattern, but I did use the idea..so thanks to the above folks.  My addled brain has decided on just extending the orange.  I did not want anything to take away from the cute elephants framed in white.  I cut my elephants 6 inches with a 1 and  1/2 inch chain..  I am going to sew this on now and then go look for a backing.  I hope I do not go nuts with this too????  Maybe some M&M's from my other stash will help.

I am thinking of these for the binding, but then...
Cristin voted on the Summersville in Black..left side.  I think I just might add that to the binding options...a great idea..Thank u Cristin....

I love this quilt! I thought I liked the greens the best until I saw the orange border... Even better! It is looking great!

I like the orange-as-a-neutral & love love love the donkeys with the elephants. I think you will look back with a smile on your creative concussion period.
