Too Many Fish


"Over the Limit:  Too Many Fish" is hand pieced.  The fish are fussy cut batiks.  Each fish block is 4" finished.  At the moment I'm trying to decide how to quilt it.  When is not a question, now!  This is a great project for charm squares, since each "fish" can be cut from a 5" square.

One of the pleasures of patchwork by hand is portability.  I did all the block-to-block sewing on a trip to Montana. 

The next Fish quilt combines applique and piecing, and is currently nameless.  Maybe "School's Out."

I'd quilt wavy lines.
