[/quote]After getting through all 19 pages of this post, I figure it is my turn. My Storm at Sea was inspired by one I saw in a Miniature Quilts Magazine long, long ago. I changed the pattern to make it "mine." It is paper pieced and hand quilted, 27" square. I just loved using the swirls in the border fabric as the quilting design. No marking! The circles in the center came from bowls in my kitchen cabinets.[/quote]
