"Sea Glass" is a fusible applique quilt that measures 36" x 54." I just finished the "Sea Glass" pattern yesterday. I did a Google search of "sea glass" to get ideas before making this quilt and I saw photos of an amazing beach in California that's loaded with this stuff. It's called Glass Beach near Ft. Bragg. Apparently the locals used the beach as a dump in the 1940's (I know!) and now it's all nicely tumbled. Visitors like to take bags of it home with them. Scroll down to see a photo of it.

Love it! Did you sew down the "glass" pieces or just fuse them?
ReplyDeleteI just fused them, but the quilting helps too.
ReplyDeleteHow cool! From trash comes treasure!
ReplyDeleteI was actually there a few years ago and picked up some of the smooth, rounded glass pieces to bring home with me as a souvenir. Have it in a little corked bottle. Love the pattern!
