Lili's Caribbean Beach Quilt


This is a photo of my then 3-year old granddaughter in her bedroom...standing on the bed for the photo shoot only!!!!
Her wall quilt is of beach cottages, cabanas, and palm trees with a sandy beach and"snail's trail" ocean waves. It is a paper pieced quilt from a commercial pattern. It was fun to do, and is embellished with all kinds of buttons, parrots, fish, bananas in the palm trees, a cat in a window...flowers in the gardens and on the trees.
The bed quilt is a wonderful, crazy quilt done in brights....lots of squares within squares and checkerboards. From a quilting magazine....
Both were made by me and machine quilted commercially.

Wow that is fantastic! I like that Caribbean Beach Quilt. It would be
much better if real pictures of Caribbean Beach is posted as well
though. Good post.
