The quilting is organic wavy lines on Mrs.Singer. She and I got into the groove, and the waves look so nautical!!
My customer picked this pillow sham from the Shams With Style book. I've said it before, and I'll say it again - this is the best quilting book I have ever purchased. I've used it more than any quilting-related book I own. It includes instructions for many different styles of pillow shams in 9 sizes. Yes! 9 sizes for each pillow style!
The backing is the cutest sailboat print! Note to self: Think twice, cut once. Directional fabrics are directional, after all! Yep, I cut the backing going the wrong way after thinking once, not twice.

Great pattern, thanks! I am always looking for patterns that use 10 inch squares and can see myself trying this one soon.
Waves look great and love your choices of fabric. Great finish!
great for a boys quilt, i am making a sports quilt for my grandson
That is a wonderful pattern for those fabrics. I don't see anything wrong with the backing, though. Love the wavy lines for this quilt. Thank you so much for the free pattern.
Thank you for the cute pattern. Can't wait to give it a try!
I love the contrast your waves create against the stripes. I find your quilt perfect for summer and vacations. :-)

Love the wavy quilting - perfect for the nautical theme. A lovely quilt. Found via Freemotion by the River
Such a great quilt pattern and quilt. The quilting is just right for it. So summery, too - I can feel the breeze through my hair as I sail around the bay. And it's free!
