“Take a walk with a turtle and behold the world in pause.”
“Behold the Turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out.”
“Try to be like the turtle-at ease in your own shell.”
Wishing you a slow-paced and enjoyable day!

Next – snails and other aquatic shelled creatures for an underwater wonderworld? Maybe you have already done some of those … I’m pretty new to your blog so haven’t explored your catalogue. What I’ve seen is simply mind-blowing … would have never guessed such realistic forms could be accomplished with FMQ. Thank you for showing us all such wonderful possibilities.

Really sensational details Lori
Joy French
Beautiful! Perhaps one of your blogs could be an explanation of the process. Do you have to work from the inside out when doing a design like this? Could you do the turtles and outside border then fill in?
Lori Kennedy
I can do a post that explains more I do stitch all the turtles first then fill in. I stitch the border last.
Joy French
Thank you Lori. I look forward to that post. Your blog is so informative.

The quilting design in this piece is fantastic! Every stitch belongs just where it is. There is a natural movement and flow that is just perfect. The effect is both playful and elegant. Way to go, Lori!
