When Jenni was 13 she wanted to make a quilt and as her bedroom had an "Under the Sea" theme she chose "Magic Beach" design by Chook Shed Pattern Co. Jenni did all the blanket stitch applique and her stitching is very even. The quilt's been languishing in the sewing room for a few years - a palm tree needs to be appliqued onto the beach hut block and some name need stitching onto a few of the other blocks (angel fish, green turtle etc) - these can be done after the quilting is finished. I prepared the backing this morning and I'm hoping to do the quilting over the next couple of weeks.

As you can see from this photo, the first day of spring in the 'Gong was glorious.
