Stitch a little ocean world, one beautiful detail at a time.

Create a charming coastal keepsake with the Quesbo Hawaiian Honu Tide-Pool Pendant. A turquoise turtle rests in a softly padded pale-blue pool, surrounded by flowers, leaves and a scalloped ocean border. Three dangling charms—a green leaf, wave medallion and shell—complete this colourful felt creation.

Inspired by the coastal world of Hawai‘i, this contemporary craft combines hand sewing, embroidery and felt appliqué in a rewarding project to enjoy at your own pace. Make it as a hanging decoration or a thoughtful handmade gift for an ocean lover.
