Orangutan&nbsp;is based on a childhood trip that Nancy took to the Los Angeles Zoo where she took a photo of the orangutan depicted in the quilt. Back when she saw the exhibit it wasn't all that good with a fake tree and cement surrounding the&nbsp;orangutan, so for the quilt she wanted to put him in a nice natural background full of lush foliage and trees that she pieced. Since that initial trip, Nancy has returned to the LA Zoo and is happy to report that the&nbsp;orangutans are living a happier life in a much more naturalistic exhibit.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://gallery.thequiltshow.com/products/orangutan-nancy-brown?_pos=1&amp;_psq=Oranguta&amp;_ss=e&amp;_v=1.0">Click Here to see the Full Quilt.</a>See more of Nancy's quilts in&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://thequiltshow.ezycourse.com/en/video-details/701-how-to-make-an-animal-portrait-quilt-with-nancy-brown/12016/">How to Make an Animal Portrait Quilt with Nancy Brown</a>.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=19577e77de6b&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 36 Pieces Non-Rotating</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=2eacfecae7c8&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 100 Pieces Non-Rotating</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=056bf50d8130&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 289 Pieces Non-Rotating</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=123c9ce221d5&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 36 Pieces Rotating</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=0ae1cbf9a5ee&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 100 Pieces Rotating</a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&amp;pid=153d304bfd49&amp;view=maximized">OrangutanbyNancyBrown - 289 Pieces Rotating</a> <img src="http://quiltshowmedia.com/images/2023_Blogs/Puzzles/jigsaworangutanbynancybrown.jpg" alt="jigsaworangutanbynancybrown.jpg" containerstyle="" wrapperstyle="display: flex"><p style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none;">&nbsp;<p style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none;">Original Photo: Gregory Case<p style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.16px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none;">&nbsp;
