Hi all,
I'd love to make up some wallhangings inspired by the kind of seashells found in Florida. I'm not having much luck googling for this. I welcome applique, pieced and/or paper pieced. Book or booklet titles would be welcomed, too. Thanks in advance for your help! lots2do |

I Googled paper pieced sea shell and found these:

What a wonderful idea! I think I would like to do a quilt like that too! Anyone have any ideas that could help us? I live in OH and I love the ocean...it has been a long time since I have been to the beach BUT I have my FL room decor in a "beach" theme. Thanks in advance for your help!

for stencils, try www.quiltingstencils.com Lots of sea shell designs there for both blocks and borders.

My husband's family is from the western side of the state, Muskegon, Shebly, Ludington and etc. It sure is beautfiul! Cant' wait to get back there this summer to visit and catch up!

I plan on that, in fact, I just told my husband this A>M> that I will be getting a digital camera. He said "why"? They have no clue do they? Gotta love him!
