I couldn’t justify going there during lockdown and there’s always the feeling that I might be needed at home. It was a bit sad but I’m very lucky that we have a dining room big enough for a sewing table!

I love how you've used all the detail and history to weave such a captivating tale and so beautifully illustrated it with all the detail in your quilt. I think we should find some other objects for you and you could make a book of art quilts and adventure stories :) Janine @ Rainbow Harehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00506960048874406422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236944057573310628.post-325982955569657802020-08-02T10:34:45.842+01:002020-08-02T10:34:45.842+01:00Thank you Ruth - lying in bed imagining the ship h...Thank you Ruth - lying in bed imagining the ship has been a great antidote to worrying about real life! :-)Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10693903606189589310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236944057573310628.post-83658410207893473972020-08-02T10:33:26.206+01:002020-08-02T10:33:26.206+01:00Thank you Martha!

As I read along and saw the progression of the pictures I just kept thinking, "Wow! I could never think that." And isn't that the beauty of this Endeavourers group? Being a part of it is such a blessing in my life. Thank you for inviting me to join. Maps, shells, morning glories, and the sea are all favorite things of mine so this quilt ticks all the boxes! It's absolutely wonderful, my friend.Maureenhttp://www.josephinaballerina.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-236944057573310628.post-36485438053464634302020-08-01T14:07:49.446+01:002020-08-01T14:07:49.446+01:00This is really lovely.
