"The Cobb at Lyme Regis" landscape quilt
#1
Not sure I really love this. It didn't turn out how I envisaged it in my head. Anyway... I expect someone will love it enough to buy it at some stage! :-)
It's from a photo taken by my DH at our 'local' beach on the south coast of England. I've searched my files but I can't find the photo! Aaargh!
I used batting for the foaming waves and drier lint (!) for the stormy sky. That was fun! I just teased it out and laid it on there then FMQd over it with my big disc foot to keep it all in place. Thank you for looking. It's 44" by 15" :D
EDIT It really IS square, honest, it looks warped in the photo! :shock: :lol:

And as this thread has so far had 165 views and only 7 posts (some mine!) I guess I'm not the only one who thinks it's pants! :lol: :lol: :lol:

where to begin?
very creative, as usual, and unexpected in the execution. it really does capture the rocky coast. yes, show the waves and the sky.
it almost has the feeling of the block-benders in that it 'shapes' the cliffs.
how long did it take you?
(are those cliffs? i'm totally unfamiliar with that geography.)
