The quilt pattern set contains all thirteen patterns. A 24-inch center medallion block is surrounded by twelve 12-inch album-style blocks featuring fish, seahorses, crabs, lobsters, dolphins and a friendly octopus. The seaweed quilt border has fish, dolphins and sea turtles with octopus corners.
The pattern contains a suggested fabric list and a layout guide for full size pattern pieces. There are some basic instructions for assembling the applique using Pearl's Quick and Easy Applique Techniques. You may also assemble using the Fusible Raw Edge applique method and Machine Sew. Optional button embellishments sold separately.
