    Not big on sailboats. (The company laying me off in January has a sailboat motif in their logos.)

    You think a whale would work?

    Nice! I love it with the whale. I know someone having a baby boy in December who would love it!

    Beautiful way to "calm" yourself after your T-shirt quilt frenzy! It's beautiful.

    And here it is hanging dry after I hand-washed off my cheap water-soluble stabilizer (AKA ordinary paper).

    Strange how many people don't realize how calming and peaceful sewing/quilting can be after a stressful project. I love the little blue quilt.

    I love it, especially with the whales. Now it is not necessarily for a baby... its just a lovely Beachy quilt. Add a lighthouse pillow and you've got set like none other!

    Great job! I really like the colors and the whale is a very nice touch.
