My version of a Storm at Sea. I wish now, in looking at it finished, I had continued the purple wave to the borders. Oh well, it is what it is! Nothing in my house is blue, so the poor baby has a home in the guest bedroom where it looks great on a white wall.

All batiks - my continuing love affrai with these fabrics!

It is really pretty even if you aren't happy with the purple decision. I think all of us are our own worst critics - unless you met my mother in which point when you think you have something perfect, she will find something negative about it lol.

Thank you so much. I too loved this pattern, but wouldn't attempt all the piecing until I found a paper piecing pattern. Cannot remember where it came from, someplace online, and when I printed it out, I had to redo the pattern because it wasn't to size for the 2 long pieces to match each other! But it was no biggie -- glad I had made a sample before I printed out all those pages!

Beautiful; the purple gives it movement. This is a pattern that requires patience. I tried it on a small scale and gave up.

Very nice. I also like the pattern.Maybe someday a wall size would be doable.

Beautiful. I was wondering how that block would look all together. I love it. Your colors are perfect, just what the sea looks like during a storm.

Judy, this is a beautiful quilt. Don't know how you could have done anything different to make it any prettier. You can see the waves of color washing over the quilt. Truly great job!
