My cousin lives in Spain. She and her husband run this wonderful resort. She is going to have her first baby within a few short weeks. We wanted to send a little something to welcome their first son..
with images such as this, I had a pretty clear idea of where I wanted to go with this quilt. I knew that I wanted to use Heather Ross’ Mendocino line, I knew I wanted a masculine feel. I wanted to include natural linen. I wanted fabric that made you feel the sand and the sea.. I think that is what I achieved.
I took my inspiration from here and here.
and here is the back. I am pretty happy with it, except the back shifted some during quilting. However, the overall look is wrinkled crinkled and it will be ok. I love the binding it is a pale pale blue polka dot and it looks like the blue blue sky. 
I just hope Mama and Papa and little baby boy love it and are able to spend many hours sitting by the sea watching the waves roll in.
wow this turned out wonderful!!! I still can’t believe you’ve been quilting for such a short time. Good job!!! They will love it~
Love it Jenn! The fabrics you used are fabulous. Your cousin’s going to love it for sure.
Very nice!
