I made a quilt for my grandson, Jase John Lien, born November 7, 2016 to my daughter Michaele and husband Matt.
The quilt is for his beach themed nursery and matches his older brother, Hudson's, quilt.
The quilt is an original design and is machine pieced, appliqued, and quilted. I quilted the top to the batting and then did some limited quilting to the Minky backing. I wanted the backing to feel plush and did not want it heavily quilted.
The sky has quilted clouds. The water has a wave pattern. I quilted lines in the sand fabric to simulate dunes. The rocks by the lighthouse were quilted with a pebble design (free motion).

The quilt was finished February 13, 2017. Dimensions are 41" X 50".
