Octopus

 I just finished this quilt for a family member who is about to make a new start after some trying times.   She requested something with an ocean theme.
 The quilt finishes about 70" x 90", sized for a twin bed.    Because there was a quick turn around from when the request was made, to when it's needed, I did raw edge applique with fusable.  And did the stitching in place as part of the quilting. 
I was aiming for a lot of texture, and felt it was quite a success.  Now back to all the unfinished projects, plus a new one...a quilt for a Covid-19 survivor that captures some of her experiences.

Love this one, especially the large octopus. I hope your gifter enjoys snuggling in all its arms.
