August's Aquarium

 

This quilt is for my soon-to-be-born grandson, August Raye Henry, who should be arriving in about a week and a half.  I finished the binding on Wednesday, now it just needs a label.  I'm waiting until he is born for that, so that I can put his birth date on the label. 

The quilt is made from my own design, an ocean waves style big block quilt.  I wish there had been a bit more contrast between the fabric in the center of the quilt, but it's still good. I machine quilted it myself on my home sewing machine.  I used a dinner plate to mark curved lines and then used my walking foot to quilt them.  Overall I'm happy with how it turned out.
