36" x 46"
At last spring's Quilters of South Carolina meeting, I was
fortunate enough to win some of the beach theme applique challenge
blocks. My task now was to incorporate these 6 blocks into a
"beachy" wall hanging, pulling all the components together.
I sewed small aqua and blue squares to create sashing that
emulated water, connected all the blocks and found "sand-like"
borders to complete the look. Still needing a final touch, I
appliqued shells on the border fabric for added interest. I find
this quilt to be fun and fanciful and will enjoy displaying it in
my home during the summer months.
