your quilting really brought together all the colors of the sea in the batiks and gave the illusion of waves. NICE WORK!

Perle cotton as in the embroidery kind? :) What kind of needle? I really like the look of this!

Now that looks great, and so good on that quilt. It's something I would enjoy I think.

Yes just regular embroidery perle cotton, and an embroidery needle, probably could use a smaller needle if not working with batiks.
Thanks so much everyone.

My husband gives your quilt a huge thumbs up!! :thumbup: He loves anything to do with the ocean. Great job, the big stitches give your quilt a feeling of movement.
