Help finding a pattern for nephew's wedding quilt
 
My nephew is getting married at Redondo Beach, L.A. CA in late July. They will live near the ocean and I planned to do a lap quilt/twin size using "beach" color. I'd found a free pattern on one of the fabric co websites that was a simple square patch that was offset so that is "waved" horizonally and had an appliqued circle design that formed a wavy line vertically asymmetrically . Not a great description, I know!

Problem is I can't find the pattern! Either I can't find the fabric co (know it's not Moda) or they've taken it down. I was excited as I will have scrapes from my daughter's storm at sea (made from blue batiks) and planned to use them with the circles being various yellow, orange, red to look like a setting sun over the ocean.

Can any one help me with this? My EQ7 skills are not up to speed yet to draw this out :(

Kind of hard to help without knowing the pattern or seeing a picture. Did you "Pin" the quilt, by any chance?

I have seen some 'beach' quilt photos on Pinterest.
Take a look here.

Hope you can get some ideas if you can't find the exact one that you seek.

It sounds like it's a bargello type quilt with applique added. Maybe include "bargello" in your search?

Here is another idea.
This one was posted on this board by hobbykat1955 back in 2010.
I bookmarked it for inspiration.

Wish I could help in the search. You might look at this pattern by a board member named Eileen Wright. The pattern name is SURF'S SONG.

I would also suggest searching in Pinterest. You will love Redondo Beach. Lived there for about 4 years in the mid 80s. Sometimes is can be cool and foggy in the mornings.

Maybe this - it is called Beyond Horizons. It was at one time a free download on the Blank Quilting website. I didn't see it there today, which is why I didn't provide a link. I have the pattern so feel free to PM me.
