Project Quilting 10-2 Red, White and Blue
Sailing
Making great use of the Park being closed, I had the chance to be in Florida for this week. I didn't bring any sewing stuff with me at all. I thought I'd just miss this one, but then an idea came to me and with limited materials and sewing by hand, I made a sailboat.
I just wanted to take it's picture on the beach, but the winds were SO high today that this was as far as I got without the entire boat flying away.
I used pellon stabilizer and quilted each piece of my boat before putting it together. I appliqued on the sails and I added the 98 to represent where I am. US 98, on the gulf coast.
The waves are really kicked up today too. Very beautiful as a study in whites and grays.
Just the other night, when the wind was calm, we were treated to a fabulous sunset.
