I grew up in Florida and spent as much time as possible at the beach. Then I moved to the Midwest. I’m very particular about ocean themed fabrics and scrutinize them for their ability to impress me with a memory connection to the ocean. The colors must be calming to remind me of a relaxing summer day at the beach. This fabric is all of that. I couldn’t be happier with it…it’s perfect. Finding the fabric in the patterns/colors I wanted, the pricing, the ease of the transaction were all very good. Shipping was faster than expected. This shop earned their five-stars!
