Queen of the Pacific quilt

This queen-sized quilt was a custom order for a world-traveling couple who wanted a reminder of their roots in California, on the coast of the Pacific.

The colors are a gradient of marine blues and greens, with some oceanic prints mixed in. The top is not trimmed into a straight line like the bottom, so there's a decorative serrated edge at the top that echoes the tops of the jagged wave lines throughout.

The pattern used on this quilt is called New Wave, by a designer named Elizabeth Hartman, and has a fun, modern vibe, especially in the chosen colors.

It was difficult to get a good quilt photo of this one (it's always difficult to capture a quilt), because it was such a windy, overcast day on the actual Pacific coast, so the photo shoot eventually moved indoors. To see more pics, visit the Bespoke Quilt Gallery.
