Under the sea

 This is the second block I have embellished for the 
Under The Sea themed Round Robin of CQI.
 It is for Dana in New Zealand.


 Dana loved to have a "coral reef" kind of look, so I started with making a colorful fantasy fish. 
Here a close up of the fish.

After that I added the green fern, stitched in a green variegated perle silk cotton hand dyed by my friend Lorraine from www.colourcomplements.com/shop
After that I stitched the orange coral from bugle beads and added the beaded starfish.


 At last I added a little piece of tatting and the seahorse and crab charms.
Happy Easter!
