Default Sharks quilt

I started this Elizabeth Hartmann quilt in 2022 because I really loved the pattern. In November my GS said he loves sharks and I new I had to finish for a Christmas present. This was a fun quilt to do but as the song says "Oh the shark, babe, has such teeth" they were a fright to do so many little pieces. I quilted it using my Juki TL2010 on my Cutie Breeze frame with wavy lines and a few bubbles thrown into design.

So cute! Are the shark's teeth pieced or is it printed fabric. Perfect whichever way.

Your quilt is amazing. I know how much time went in making that pattern. I bought the pattern to make one for my grandson but used a shark panel instead. LOL

Great quilt ... the plaid fabric is a perfect choice and your pieced teeth were well worth their annoyance!

Be proud, Grandma ThreeDogNight!!

The are pieced each tooth is a red & white with a red strip at top. It took me 3 tries to get them right.

This is the absolute cutest! I love the teeth. They're not too menacing for a child, but they definitely remind you that it's a shark!

Your quilt is amazing! All the different plaids are wonderful. And I love the perfect little teeth. Gotta have the teeth. Well worth the extra effort. Great quilt!

The panel shark is a little scary but my grandson loves it. He uses it on the sofa when watching Shark Week.
