"Seas The Day" and come have fun creating the beautiful Mermaid or Shore Bird blocks.
These ‘beachy’ blocks can be made into wonderful wall hangings. Alternatively, the Mermaid block can be appliquéd onto a larger background for a spectacular pillow. The Shore Birds can be appliquéd onto a background to make a circular towel bin.
Please choose which project you want to sew either the ‘Seas the Day’ in a ‘Mermazing’ Way or “I Shore Do Love Those Birds”. Each pattern gives you 2 projects to make. The supply list gives you what is needed for each of those options.
Each pattern costs $11.99 and are available from this website- https://margaretsewfunquilts.com. Patterns will also be available for sale at the November VAQG meeting and at the class.
