Sea Day

Today (third Monday in July) is a national holiday in Japan. The purpose of Umi no Hi 海の日  or Sea Day is to give thanks for the sea's bounty and to consider the importance of the sea to Japan as a maritime nation.  


I haven't done much sea related stitching but here are a few things, mostly fish, which come from the sea - -

You certainly have done more fishy stitching than I have!
I can't recall seeing the keyring or the teacup afgan before.
