Ocean Straights



Yes yes, it's supposed to be ocean waves, but this quilt is a very geometric representation of water so it called for a slightly different interpretation. I thought of bubble curtains (like in a fancy fish tank) rather than ocean waves, and the top's maker, Swooze, agreed.

I got to use my circle templates a LOT and my recently repaired horizontal lock which made this a bit of a departure for me since most of my stuff is freehand. I'm just never going to get tired of quilting!
