Fish Under The Sea Block - Complete!

I completed this project yesterday afternoon and I must say, I absolutely love it and want to do another Fish Under The Sea quilt now!

Fish Under The Sea

What a change of pace from traditional crazyquilting! I use some broken jewelry that I got in a bag of misc. pieces at a flea market last Summer. Lot's of sequins, real seashells, pretty little fish charms, dyed freshwater pearls, semi-precious stone chips and of course, some beads.

And speaking of handbags, that's probably what I'll do with this piece.

  1. It's fabulous! I just love it.

    Do you have your etsy site linked anywhere besides in June? I have to keep going back there because I forget to bookmark it! I'm referring friends to it.

  2. Thank you so much Susan! There's a link to my shop in the sidebar on the left-hand side here on my blog. I also have one on my main webpage.

    Would you like me to send you a couple of my business cards? If so, email me your address and I'll send them out to you.

  4. I love this!! The cast on is great with that spiral effect. I use that alot for kelp too.
    Did you use a super long needle for these ?(tatting). I don't have one of those. Is there any other way it can be done?

  6. jo, yes, I use a long tatting needle needle to do the cast-on spirals. I imagine you can probably use any long needle although I recommend one without a blunt point.

  7. I meant to say that I recommend one "with" a blunt point!
