I finishd the quilt top for my 9 year old grandson. He picked out the pattern, approved all the blue fabrics... blue has always been his favorite color.. I called it beach birds because there are two different bird blocks in it... Birds in the Air, and flying geese. I also made it while snowbirding at the beach. It's gone to the longarmers... and I'll have it back in a few weeks.

That is beautiful. Blue is one of my favorite colors. I probably have enough blue in my stash to make at least 2-3 quilts. Your design is very nice. Your grandson will love it.
