Elijah's quilt - First Mate

Like this little fella? Its the first mate for Elijah's quilt. Fun to make and just makes me smile when I see him.

Its been a great weekend. I couldn't have chosen better weather if I picked it out myself. Did a little shopping at QBee quilts and picked up my next redwork block, which I hope to show soon.

Next one is the Captain....stayed tuned (please).

You've given me such a good idea to think about when you posted about putting the quilt behind the checkerboards. Brilliant! I may have to try that one. Thanks.
