I drew the sailboat on graph paper and made a paper-piecing block out of it. I've just looked, and I can't find the graph paper! Oh No! I may have thrown it out when I was cleaning up after the sailboats were finished. I'm sorry... Attached is a closeup photo of a leftover sailboat block if that helps you draw your own.

Love that you said no one better fall out of one of these sailboats because it's dangerous under water! The waves quilting is perfect and really makes it look like the ships are sailing. Sharks on the backing is so fun!
