 We lived a block from North Creek and probably spent more time at the creek then the coastal beaches. As well as swimming and fishing we collected oysters off the rocks, sun bathed, built sand castles and chased soldier crabs, as my sister said it was both a place to be when needing time alone and a place of fun.
I also used this seam to put the miniature coke bottle for the memories that my brothers made their pocket money by collecting discarded glass drink bottles and returning them to the shop for the 5 cents refund.

I just can’t get over the amount of thought you are putting into all of the personal symbols in this project. EVERY little detail has meaning. It’s wonderful!

I remember doing that! What my brothers did was put baby bottle nipples on the end of the coke bottles and then have chug-a-lug contests! It’s why I still don’t drink Coke to this day. The bubbles would go up my nose, and I’d always lose! LOL!
I love your seam of memories.

Annie, I have been enjoying following your work on this quilt, and I have to tell you this seam treatment with the coke bottle is so darling and creative.
