Oh look what I just received!

The CQI round robin swap...Under The Sea is coming to an end...and the blocks are finding their way home.Look at how gorgeous my block is; the ladies did a wonderful job on it! (I did not stitch any of this...but I'm lucky enough to now own it! LOL!)

Here are some closeups so you can see the detail. Isn't the mermaid so neat, she reminds me of a sea urchin....

The little lace fish are actually lace petals from a sun-flower...how creative!

The wide ribbon is not something that I would have considered...but I'm so loving it with the seaweed and beads...and I'll be using the idea in future seascape blocks!

And check out this little scene! I love the ribbon work...and will be "borrowing" this little stitching idea too!

The stitching is by Candj B. of Kent, Ohio; Darlene D. of Owosso, Michigan; Deloris D. of Columbia City, Indiana; and Jacque S. of Gordon, Nebraska. Thanks ladies, the block is gorgeous!
