While I was at my sister's back in February, babysitting her dogs, this is one of the tops that I pieced together. The embroidery in the blocks are from a CD called Under the Sea by Anita Goodesign. It has the mylar in it, so they are sparkly. I added the fusible fish and coral just for fun because I had a bit of that fabric left and thought I would use it up.
I just did some wavy, watery lines going across and quilting around things as I went.
I sewed the fusible fish and turtles and coral down as I came to them.
Some of the fish are together....you should never swim alone, you know. haha
I love the octopus. These designs are really rather colorful.
A couple of the designs are not really things that go under the sea....but I didn't design them.
And I like that I used the 'pieces' of fish that were cut in the fabric, too. I had the perfect piece of fabric for the binding with the blue, green, pink and yellow colors from the scrub scraps pile.

The back is a blue and white print that I had enough to fit. The quilt is 38x48.
Glide Hawaiian Blue for the top; Bottom Line off white for the bobbin.
