Great instructional video! Needed a project for a trip I'm going on. Can't sit around at night without doing something with my hands, this will be perfect. Printed out your PDF, now looking for a cereal box to cut up. Love your pillow, so fun. You make everything look so easy. Thanks!
Hi Sherri, thank you for the video, great tips on how to make my own orange peel pillow and especially the pattern. I’m going to give it a try. Good luck with your quilt project, although I don’t think you’ll need it judging by your pillow. 🙂
Thanks for pattern and informative video! I've been making more pillows lately and love this method for a different look! I love the Soft Spots Book too for interesting pillows!
I can’t wait to do a orange peal quilt, going to do a pillow first. But this looks like so much fun! Thank you for sharing how you make these blocks! 😍
Congratulations on meeting your goal! Thank you for sharing your tips with us. Please, will you tell us more about the quilt on the lower rungs of the ladder behind you? It has caught my eye a couple of weeks now. Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing such a fun project 😊 Do you match the thread to the peel or do you use a neutral thread for all blocks that just blends in?
Good morning. I’d love to download the free pattern. I cannot find it. Can you help me please? It will be first orange peel project and I’m making pillow shams for Christmas gifts.
So you coerced me into hexies and I went crazy and made the Emma's Flower Garden Quilt and now I'm loving these orange peels! 🍊 lol Thank you so much for the tutorial and now I'm off to print and make templates!
Thank you for this quick tutorial, like you I have wanted to do this style but it tends to be .. oh I’ll try that next .. and next never comes lol. BUT doing the hand method means it can be picked up at anytime which is great. This will be a fun summer project..
I'm currently working on packing up my sewing room for a move. Sew excited to get to the other side and set up my new space. Thanks for sharing your quilts
Thank you so much for the video and congrats on your accomplishment of making your orange peel project . This is a lot of steps to get the orange peels ready to appliqué down. I think you could appreciate if you invest in a electronic cutter such as a Brother Scan N Cut it would make your appliqué life soooo! much easier and faster to accomplish. Putting heat and bond on the back of the fabric and cut out as many shapes at one time as needed sounds like the way to go to me when doing appliqué. And thank you so much for the free pattern I also enjoy your channel.
I purchased the orange peel template from Missouri Star Company. I wanted to simplify this process so I’ll be using interfacing and turn them out then appliqué.
Thank you Sherri for the tutorial. I've been using cereal boxes for over 30 years to make templates. I was taught this method from a senior lady that had been quilting for about 60 years. Helen was my quilting mentor and I still miss her so much since she passed away in 2015.
Loved this tutorial thanks for sharing my Mother hand appliquéd a lot during her quilting making life but she did not know all the modern techniques we have now. I always thought looked so hard. Your video makes me want to try it out on something small first before I try so thank you again. Have a blessed day.
Thank you for this tutorial. You have made it less scary to approach!😊 It looked like something I can do. Thank you for the pattern and tutorial. Way to go on your goal too!
Good tutorial, I was curious on how you did the points, you made it look easy. Thanks for sharing! Another teacher I had in past was to use silk thread and it literally disappeared.
Now my husband will have to eat more cereal! Loved the video and wanted to tell you, that you have one of those great voices to talk and teach. Some voices are so bland, but you have a lot of accentuation in yours and it keeps people wanting to come back to hear you.
Love the pillow, but is there a pattern available for the square in square pattern on the ladder to your right? I looked in your Etsy shop but couldn’t find it. help????? Thx😊
I haven't tried doing an orange peel before, but with your instructions I feel it is a doable adventure. When I took my first quilting class (1992) we made our templets using graph paper and we glued sandpaper to the back of the templets so they would not slip as we marked the cutting and sewing lines on fabrics. It's good to know some of the older methods are still being used from time to time. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thank you Sherri…I love the pillow you made! So pretty! You are so sweet! I can’t wait to make the pillow with your Bountiful Blooms fabric! I’ve learned so much from you and I thank you. ♥️
Thank you for sharing with us. I haven't done this one yet and I really want to try now. I really love how you write your patterns easy to follow and beautiful outcomes.
Thank you for the great tutorial. I just finished an orange peel project and I really enjoyed it, but I would like to try the method you demonstrated because your results look so great.
I really like your background fabrics. I have made several orange peel quilts and never thought of using low volume print background fabrics.
Nice pattern & demo keeping it simply, thanks for sharing. 👍❤️😊
Thank you for all the tips on making this pillow❤ love your fabrics❤
Thanks Sherri!!! Love your pillow!! This is a great tutorial on doing the Orange Peel!!! I'm going to give it a try!!
Congratulations on doing your goal. This would be a great project to take on our c a moping trip.
Thank you for this video. I’m going to put it on my list to make. I love your pillow method. I’ve probably made as many as you now.😂

I tried several times to download this pattern to no avail
Cana quilt be made with this? I dont care for pillows
Morning Sherri. The orange peel has been on my bucket list of wanting to do. This seams to be a doable project. ❤ Thanks for sharing.
So you coerced me into hexies and I went crazy and made the Emma's Flower Garden Quilt and now I'm loving these orange peels! 🍊 lol Thank you so much for the tutorial and now I'm off to print and make templates!
Do you use silk thread to hand appliqué?
no...I just use Aurifil 50 weight. Sometimes I use a lighter weight Aurifil cotton depending on the fabric.
Thank you for this quick tutorial, like you I have wanted to do this style but it tends to be .. oh I’ll try that next .. and next never comes lol. BUT doing the hand method means it can be picked up at anytime which is great. This will be a fun summer project..

Great directions and info - thank you for sharing!
I purchased the orange peel template from Missouri Star Company. I wanted to simplify this process so I’ll be using interfacing and turn them out then appliqué.
That's how I do mine too
what is the name of the quilt to your right on the ladder...the lower one made of coloured blocks. I can't seem to find it on your website.
I am looking for that also!
Thank you Sherri for the tutorial. I've been using cereal boxes for over 30 years to make templates. I was taught this method from a senior lady that had been quilting for about 60 years. Helen was my quilting mentor and I still miss her so much since she passed away in 2015.
Thank you for showing how to cut and using the freezerpaper.
I am definitely going to try this method. Thank you!👍🏻💫
Loved this tutorial thanks for sharing my Mother hand appliquéd a lot during her quilting making life but she did not know all the modern techniques we have now. I always thought looked so hard. Your video makes me want to try it out on something small first before I try so thank you again. Have a blessed day.
Thank you for a terrific demonstration. I feel much more confident in trying to do appliqúe and definitely an orange peel project.
oH BOY! tHANKS FOR THIS, i'VE BEEN DROOLING OVER THE IDEA OF MAKE SOMETHING IN JUST REDS ORANGE PEEL....THIS LOOKS LIKE THE TICKET FOR ME
Thank you so much. ❤️
Thanks for another great tutorial!
That is so pretty! Ah, so many quilting projects, so little time! *Adds to list of projects 🤣

Thank you Sherri for the tutorial. I am always interested in learning new sewing techniques and anything that has to do with quilting!😊
Thankyou for tutorial. Just one question. What needle do you like to use for applique?
Great detailed tutorial! Thank you, Sherri!
Good tutorial, I was curious on how you did the points, you made it look easy. Thanks for sharing! Another teacher I had in past was to use silk thread and it literally disappeared.
Thank you so much for the pattern and tutorial. After watching this I decided I'm going to try it.😊

Now my husband will have to eat more cereal! Loved the video and wanted to tell you, that you have one of those great voices to talk and teach. Some voices are so bland, but you have a lot of accentuation in yours and it keeps people wanting to come back to hear you.
😂
Спасибо большое за мастер класс прекрасно.Будьте здоровы и счастливы, удачи.
Your link for pillow pattern takes me to an administration login on your blog.....weird? Just me? Great pillow love the idea thanks so much
Same, but link through her blog works for access to the cute pattern.
So sorry about that The link is correct now.
@A Quilting Life no worries, that's life, just thought you'd like to know have a great day!
Cereal Box. Genius.
Best Hack Ever
Thank you for sharing.🥰
Love the pillow, but is there a pattern available for the square in square pattern on the ladder to your right? I looked in your Etsy shop but couldn’t find it. help????? Thx😊
Hi Sherri! Everything you do is just so cute & so is this pillow! Of course, partly because I LOVE this fabric 💗💗
Fabulous video, Sherri. Great tips and beautiful pillow! Thank you!
This is a fabulous process!! I'm definitely going to try this method Sherri! Thank you very much for sharing this pattern!
I haven't tried doing an orange peel before, but with your instructions I feel it is a doable adventure. When I took my first quilting class (1992) we made our templets using graph paper and we glued sandpaper to the back of the templets so they would not slip as we marked the cutting and sewing lines on fabrics. It's good to know some of the older methods are still being used from time to time. Thanks for the tutorial.
Beautiful this is definitely going on my to do list ❤
Thank you. I also learned with cereal boxes.
Thank you Sherri…I love the pillow you made! So pretty! You are so sweet! I can’t wait to make the pillow with your Bountiful Blooms fabric! I’ve learned so much from you and I thank you. ♥️
Thank you for sharing with us. I haven't done this one yet and I really want to try now. I really love how you write your patterns easy to follow and beautiful outcomes.
I learned this technique from Amy as well, when she still had her quilt shop. Thanks for the refresher!! I really, really enjoyed this podcast.
You are so delightful, I am so thankful for your example. What would we do without those folks who have so kindly taught us so much! Thank you.
Instead of sandpaper, use an emery board and give the edges a swish! Beautiful project
Very pretty fabrics and pattern. Thank you!
Thank you for a great idea Sherri! Beautiful colors💕🧵
Thank you for the great tutorial. I just finished an orange peel project and I really enjoyed it, but I would like to try the method you demonstrated because your results look so great.
Thanks bunches!! This was awesome. ❤️
So pretty! Thanks for sharing the pattern and your tips!
Thank you for the tutorial! ❤
Thank you!
