Seashells
Inspired by our recent trip to Sanibel Island Florida and all the shells:
I went through my fabric and was in the mood to use some of my saved Neptune fabric line. The fabric features prints in ocean hues & has seashells, seaweed, anchors, waves, fish, scales and shipwrecks and more. I made a plus quilt with a flannel center & backed in a natural linen. This is the perfect weight for fall. Its incredibly soft & flexible. Will be very comfortable to use. I decided to hand quilt this one. I enjoy hand quilting & outlined each square (these pictures are of the quilt in progress, it is not finished yet).
In the picture of the linen quilt back you can see the hand quilting better than on the front. :)
This is a new favorite. I will be listing it soon in my etsy shop. I have a feeling I will be making more like this. It was so much fun & so soft and nice to work with.
Thanks for stopping by!
