lydamorehouse I don't think I've posted any pictures of my newest quilt project. I've been making a crazy quilt for Mason. Ever since he was very small, Mason has had a fascination with the ocean. Yes, we live in Minnesota and he had only seen the ocean in videos (he used to watch Blue Planet on repeat, especially the episode on the darkest, deepest parts of the ocean,) until a few years ago when we went to visit Los Angeles. Now, of course, he lives with in 20 minutes of the Atlantic.
I swear, stuff like this makes me want to believe in past lives.
But, at any rate, here's my crazy quilt.
Image: Full quilt, so far. Yes, that is an eyeball in the center.
Image: Angler Fish fabric!
Image: SHARKS! Silly sharks, great whites, and hammerheads....
I got a lot of the very fun fabrics from Spoonflower. I will tell you that if you shop there the fabrics are printed onto cotton and what not, so they are very stiff and very one-sided. Also, the company is really aggressive in its advertisement. So, be warned. HOWEVER, they really do have some amazingly fun fabrics that you will probably never see anywhere else.
