Default Storm at Sea, pieced but need quilting ideas

As the title says, can you please tell me or show me of your quilting designs for Storm at Sea?
Thanks in advance!

I did a variation of Storm at Sea and quilted it with large concentric circles. It was quite easy and very effective.[ATTACH=CONFIG]602368[/ATTACH]

I would put anything that reminds me of moving waves or maybe ships.

Sailorwoman, that is gorgeous!

Thank you. It is called By the Seashore and was paper-pieced.

I did a SAS out of the batiks used for table toppers for DD wedding for their wedding quilt. They went to Ireland for the honeymoon, so I used a panto (Celtic Curls) on one side for a "cliff" and then did swirls crashing against the "cliff" for the sea and at the bottom did large "stones" with Celtic designs like are found at Newgrange site and pebbling. It was very involved, but my DD loved it.(for some reason I did not get a picture of it--maybe cause I found it a very hard quilt to make--decided not to PP and really wish I had!).

I quilted swirls from one side to the other to look like waves.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]602384[/ATTACH]I'm not sure if you can see this or not, but I went around the "wavy" parts about 1/2" apart so that it ended up looking like circles. It took a while, but it is a throw so not as long as it might have if it had been bed-sized. I was really glad to finish the piecing on this one!
