I have looked at the quilt. I was eyeing those batik packs at the Crazy 9 Patch. They are so blue, reminds me of Hawaii or Bali. Really tropical. The white fabric that you chose is a natural fit for those batiks. I noticed that the white fabric has bubbles and some tropical fish in it. So putting those two ideas togehter, I came up with some edge to edge patterns that might interest you. Click on the patterns to see them more clearly.
This is actually 2 different patterns. Both are light patterns with waves, bubbles, fish and a seahorse. The top one is called Seashells; there is coral, starfish, and several shells in there. This is also a light pattern.
The bottom is Seascape. This one has seahorse, fish, seaweed and bubbles.
This one is called Sea Fantasy. It's a mermaid and seaweed. I thought it might be fun to use one of the other patterns for most of the quilt and then quilt a mermaid in on the bottom or tuck her in someplace and see if anybody notices her.
And one more. This one is more densely quilted. It has several seashells, sand dollars and starfish. It is called Simply Seashells.
I need to know if you want cotton or poly (fluffy) batting. I was thinking that a King Tut cotton thread with some blues would be pretty. Ther is a thread called Mirage which is pale and medium blues. Another King Tut thread, called DeNile has blues, aquas and some green. Then there is a Signature cottom thread called Island Waters which is also very tropical. It has more green than the other two. Here are some not so wonder pictures. Computer resolution plays tricks on us, too so consider that. I think that the KT DeNile is a stunning thread; it is bolder than the Mirage color thread. The Signature is also nie, the photo is small, sorry.
The quilt measures 91 x 101. The price on any of these edge to edge patterns is $169.88 (including batt, thread and tax).
