Ocean Arrows

The last of the bind-a-rama finishes is Ocean Arrows, a nice, big, comfy quilt at 58 x 76”. 

Rachel picked these ocean-themed fabrics and surprised me with them on our visit in February. She has an excellent sense of color - it’s a beautiful collection that ranged in size from a quarter-yard to 2-yard cuts. (Here)

In April, I picked a pattern - ok, I found a picture and figured out the pattern (here). I wanted something with big pieces that would show off the colors and designs. Nailed it!

Finished in June (here)… and then it waited patiently through two of our trips and my long-arm buddy’s stint running the Home Arts section of the local Fair before finally getting quilted last week and bound this week. 

Y’all know I love (almost) all my quilts but this one is special. Makes me feel loved every time I look at all the pretty fishies Rachel chose. 💕
