My orange does this. He really likes to stretch at least his front paws as far as he can when he's relaxing.
Does he ever stretch his back legs straight out? We have a ginger poly cat that will do a complete sploot—back legs and all.
Mine loves to curl up on my wife and I, but most of the time she’s hiked herself over one of our legs.
It's a shame that the cutest thing my cats do is not very photogenic - they love for us to put our knees up and put a blanket on so they can sleep in the tent it creates. But it's too dark to take a picture of without seriously disturbing them
