The turtles look like they are swimming right across the surface of the quilt! She is going to be so pleased. Another amazing job by Charismah.

Isn't that just precious? I love that!

Anyway she wanted the turtles to appear to be swimming...and seaweed in the border. I hope i accomplished that...I hope you can see in the pictures that the turtles are actually 3-D. This is such an adorable quilt...and what a great souvenir.

I quilted this freehand on my INNOVA. I used hobbs poly down batting.

Thanks for looking.

this is darling! Very lifelike! I can really feel the water.

Wow I love this - My daughter has a "thing" for turtles I am making her one of the comercial patterns for christmas this year but that is just gogeous making me rethinging using the comercial pattern and trying my hand and self creation !
