Rythm of the Sea








KK I've become an expert cutter now this block is cut and ironed down. It looks amazingly good in real life.

So...what you are seeing is 2 halves of the one block of an under water scene and then the octopus goes on last last, after ALL of the other blocks are completed and ready to bind as one big whole quilt. This one isn't for a bed though, it's gunna hang over the lounge window that was once an external window until we extended our house to fit in all our kiddies and now the window is a huge internal window that looks into the kids play room.

The other 2 photos are of the next 2 blocks I'm cutting out - there is 3 orca whales in a different under water scene and then some VERY fussy cut cormorant birds that will be standing on fence pailings. It's a fairly quick and easy cut out block now that the birds are done. Boy-oh-boy were they fussy to cut. The birds were okay but their beaks are actually tiny when it comes to cutting.
