So pretty! The dolphin leaping out of the water looks great - really original and much better than it would have looked without it. Love your colors too.

Oh, my.........what a beautiful coverup story.......I read just recently, that this kind of experience is where "applique" first got its start........The applique technique has saved many a quilt here in my house. One mistake I made caused me to put a very pretty applique (went across the bottom, up the center and then with branches and flowers coming out from that)...It was quite dramatic and is one of my favorite quilts (a gift for a family member).......
