Sharks are Coming!

 My neighbor's youngest son loves sharks!!  Ever Halloween for the past two years he has been a shark.

When I saw Elizabeth Hartman's Social Sharks quilt pattern, I knew that I had to make this quilt! And I knew who would love the quilt too!

After cutting out my blocks, I did my first shark, the test shark.

All those envelopes were my method of keeping the blocks and the sequence in order for assembling the sharks. The sharks aren't difficult to do, just a lot of steps.

The most difficult part was forming the teeth. I found that if I cut the white last block larger it was easier to cut the block to proper size. 

The easiest part of this project was arranging the fabrics, which would become the sharks bodies.

I first did all the right facing sharks and followed up with the left facing sharks. The background fabric is a very light blue. 

And the back of quilt is Sharks. Lots of them, too!!
