Le Challenge - Maritime

Oh dear. So today is the day to enter our 'Maritime' projects.
Only one problem - this morning, I still had nothing to enter.
NOTHING!
Unless you count a pile of maritime fabrics. Which I bought weeks ago, full of ideas about what I could make, worried that I didn't have enough fabric for all my ideas!
But then life got in the way. Work got busy. Home got busy.
There's not been much crafting at all in the past few weeks. Nor much blogging!
 
But never fear!
I managed to rustle up a last minute entry!
This is a novelty gift for Father's Day (so I'm really hoping my dad doesn't read my blog before I see him tomorrow!!) I used one of my maritime fabrics to make it qualify as my entry - two birds with one stone and all that!!
 



 
Not too bad considering I had NOTHING 2 hours ago!!!
