Thanks to Barb (The Shutterbug) for sharing the following:

Hello, again, Doodles,

While deep in the cold and snow, I catch up on crafty items.  These photos show a beach cover-up I made.
My granddaughters were busy making their own designs but my ideas always lead me to the Beanies.
Naturally the sea going creatures make wonderful subjects for pool side or beach cover-ups.

I made this in 2005 and have worn it (and washed it) many times.
It always attracts compliments from moms, kids, and grandparents and starts fun poolside conversations.

I used fabric paint.  It is important to allow the allotted time for setting and drying before washing –it is still vibrant and fun to wear.
