Storm at Sea Wall Hanging

August 22, 2013

Here it is — all quilted and everything — my first Storm at Sea quilt.  OK it’s a wall hanging, about 28″ by 28″.  Not bad for using 3 fat eights from the Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild Echo Challenge and fabrics from my stash.  I bought a quarter yard for the brown inner border and a yard of the mint print for the outer border, backing and binding.  After using the scraps in the back, I have about a fat eighth of the mint left.  I’m happy.

I experimented with the longarm quilting patterns.   My next project will be a bigger Storm at Sea and I want the quilting to support the piecing design.  This was a great help for finding out what works and what I want to do differently next time.
