Not a fan of fish, but the looks cool as art.

Wonderful pillow! It really looks like they are swimming in water because of the color and texture of that "water" fabric. You have really perfected this technique. Now how do I find flying fish in North Carolina?

Thank you! Oh no I have a long long way to perfection! I'm just learning!! Try a bait shop!!!! We used these as trolling bait here on the Island.

His wings are very fragile, didn't get many 'prints' out of him. Will bury him in the rose garden.

We saw flying fish as our ship was coming into Bermuda. I was amazed. Your pillow looks just like them!
