Hooray The Ocean Waves block tutorial is finally here This one has been looonnng in the making and I really do hope you enjoy it and are inspired to make. It is finely quilted, 10 stitches per inch.The Ocean Waves Quilt Guild’s 2023 show, Fabric of Life, will continue 10 a.m. All the pieced triangles are outline-quilted, with clamshell quilting on the white centers and double diagonal lines on the border. The fabrics used, typical of the late 1850s, are plain-colored, roller-printed, and checked cottons. A three-inch white cotton border frames the “Ocean Wave” pattern, enhanced by a ¾-inch printed cotton strip along the inside edges of the two sides. The quilt is composed of fourteen-inch blocks pieced of plain and printed triangles around plain cotton centers. The “Ocean Wave” has been a popular pattern at various times and this mid-nineteenth-century quilt provides a competently rendered example. Unfortunately, little is known at this time about the quilt maker. In 1939, Millie Medaris’s granddaughter donated this “Ocean Wave” pieced quilt.
