As some were asking I took pictures through the making of the last cover

I made a pattern out of muslin, this time in one piece instead of three and cut shapes for a fishtank and planed the layout

picking fitting fabric

the fish and the seashells are made with the embroidery machine, the rest cut out by hand and all glued to the fabric and then appliqued with the sewing machine

ta daaa.......I will add the binding tomorrow

I made a sandwich with leftover batting (two layers) and quilted by machine

with the muslin pattern I cut it in shape and closed the sides

I love it! It was so cute I had to show my granddaughter. She loves it too!

SulaBug can send it to me after she tires of it, but I have a feeling it's never leaving your house.

Great job!
