    Default Beaches, my most recently finished comfort quilt
    This quilt is finally finished and off to comfort the one for whom it was made. I'm so happy with the final results, even tho it gave me fits and I had to redo it 4 times before I could get it to come out with square corners for the borders. I did a lot of outline quilting on this one. I also had fun with my free motion foot writing on some of the blocks. It says, "warm sand on my toes..." on the flip-flop block; "shells" on the purple shell block and "Beaches" on the brown dotty rectangle at the top.
