A Day at the Beach
Please be on the look out for this quilt which was stolen from Heartbeat Quilts in Hyannis, Massachusetts on Cape Cod on July 15, 2003. "A Day at the Beach" was made by Mary Leahy. It is the cover quilt of the pattern with the same name. This one is the original quilt made before the pattern was sold commercially.
This is a small lap quilt with appliqued summer motifs including a lobster, crab, beach chair, beach ball, umbrella, fish, scallop shell, lighthouse, whale, fish, and two starfish. It is machine appliqued onto a light blue background. The alternating blocks are light blue, yellow and teal pinwheels. The hand quilted and machine pieced quilt is 38" by 50". It was made in 2000.
If you can help in the recovery of this quilt, please contact Helen at [email protected].
