FO: At the Seashore

This FO isn’t mine, but Mom’s. But it’s so amazing, I just have to share it. Back in the summer of 2019, Mom joined in on the Moda summer quilt-a-long. That summer, the theme was At the Seashore, and Mom diligently followed along, creating new blocks as they were made available. Some she subbed out for other blocks not from Moda, but ones that kept the theme going. The result was a pretty amazing sampler quilt. (And it’s the reason I decided to join in with the Moda Blockhead QAL in 2020).

She put them all together into a top. And then that top sat there. And sat there. And sat there. She really wanted to fancy quilt it, but felt her skills just weren’t up to the task.

Well, as you know… since the summer of 2019, she’s been doing a lot of “practicing” of that fancy quilting, and FINALLY she got up the courage to quilt it. And I’m so glad she did.

Isn’t it amazing?????? You have to check out all the incredible blocks in there.

It’s only a lap quilt (60″ x 64″) but as you can see, there’s a lot of fun packed into that space.

It’s available in the shop now, and I’m betting it won’t be there long!

    That is a beautiful quilt! The dark background just sets everything off. What a great assortment of blocks and fabrics. I kept scrolling back to the image of the complete quilt to take it all in.
