Seaside

Hi all,
I wanted to share with you my latest finish. I actually was done a couple of weeks ago but didn't get a chance to take any pics because it seems like it hasn't stopped raining. There was a break in the clouds last night so I rushed out to snap this.

 
 


I'm going to call it "Seaside". The color scheme may look familiar as I used many of the colors left over from my mom's cottage quilt. This one will be headed to my Dad's house down Chester way. He lives right on the ocean so I wanted something that would tie that in.

 
Then I did some varied width straight-line quilting. Let's call this "organic" as I didn't want it to be too straight or uniform. I know I use that term a fair amount but this time it was on purpose. I won't show you the back because as one of my guild mates so helpfully pointed out: it's crooked. I don't think I could get away with calling that one "organic".

Now, for something completely different, here's my next project: pixels!!

I am making quite a few of these - assuming I don't get sick of them!
