Seaside quilt

It was amazing to hear all of the references to a seaside theme yesterday. Several saw starfish, one saw fish net in the blue. All I had seen were the literal things, the fish in the multicolor fabric and the seashells in the border. I am not a water person, never learned to swim. I stay as far away from water as I can. Gayle Bong who wrote the book with this pattern in it is coming to the quilt guild in my town to do a workshop in a couple weeks. I'll have to stop by and say hi to her. It has probably been 10 years since I saw her last. I might have found the backing fabric in my stash. It is the same print as the border except that it is in multicolor.
I had three bindings waiting to be done, so I chose to do the tiny quilt first.
For play time I sorted that leaning pile of quarter yard or less into color groupings.
I will be starting on a fairly large project before the week is over. I am not going to show it until it is done because it is a design as you go and a lot of decisions have to be made along the way. I'll still be hopping from project to project though with my limited attention span, so never fear, I'll have something to show almost every day.
