It's time to link up August finishes for the One Monthly Goal on Elm Street Quilts.
I want to be sure and not forget to do it this month like I did last month, when I finished my goal, but with watching the grandchildren and trying to keep up with regular life, I missed the hook up date!
My goal this month, which I stated here, was to finish a crazy quilt piece for my daughter for her 40th birthday which was on the 24th of August. She requested a wall hanging, with a vintage mermaid in it.
This was what I started out with, a pieced CQ block. I should have darkened the mermaid picture some before I printed it on the silk fabric, but I didn't.
These are pictures of the finished piece.
Very happy to get this one done. I'm thinking of doing a whole series of under-the-sea CQ, for a wallhanging for me.
Linking up with Elm Street Quilts, One Monthly Goal.
