    Default Pirates Cove

    This is my first shot at an "art quilt". The photo does not do it justice. There are lots of jewels in the treasure chest, lots of seashells along the shore. Coconuts in the trees. All of the fish in the water and the seagulls were embroidered on my Bernina.

    Oooh sounds devine, maybe you could try posting a few closeups?? Even though we can't really see all those wonderful embellishments what I can see looks like a beach nice enough to be sunning on!
