Orphans & Scraps - Top Finished

I finally finished the top for Orphans & Scraps, a sew-along by Pam Buda of Heartspun Quilts. The blocks are by Pam, but the setting is mine.
 

This one is going in the to-be-quilted pile; I'm not going to knock myself out trying to get it quilted and bound by the deadline this time.
