Below is what Quilt Pro came up with based on 16" blocks set 3 across & 4 down.
IMO, a Storm at Sea should only be dark blue, med/light blue and white!

Oops! Here you go. It didn't change the fabric requirements by much.
There was a quilt at Paducah one year that used the single sash style and was done in yellows, reds & oranges flowing across the quilt. Firestorm or Heat Wave or something like that was its name. I've also seen it done scrappy, purples, blues, greens and a striking black/white/red. If I ever get around to it myself, I plan to paper piece it and use blues & purples.
