2017 Race for Hospice Quilt

Every year, the Sequim Bay Yacht Club does a fund raiser for hospice. Part of the fund raiser is a quilt that is raffled. I am given the honor of quilting these quilts. This is the latest one:

Although I think this quilt found its way to a grandchild, I still wanted to cover it with quilting. Below are some closeups showing the quilting around the various critters, as well as those corner blocks.

Here are a few pics of the back. You can see that I mostly outlined the animals, with minimal stitching in them. Then I tried to work with the design in the special patterned fabrics with the whales. The linework behind the animals was my attempt to make them poof out a bit, then the ribbon candy to frame them.

I just love the shots of the back of this one!
