At last another one bites the dust. Been working on this one since we had a Ricky Tims Convergance tutorial at our sewing club. It started of as the square from that Tute and finished up like this.

GD Lydia is 4 yrs old and wanted a Mermaid on her quilt so it just evolved from her idea.

Thanks Melissa, it is one of the easiest so far, although it looks a lot of work, all those big borders made it grow fast. Its probably going to be dragged around the room a lot so I didn´´t put as much work into this one as others.
