Thanks everyone!! I love the fishies so!!! Just couldn't resist putting those hearts on it! I had first thought about adding some little ones half size smaller to go along with these 'big' haha fish but decided against it -- just the four were enough for this size mini! Some of you suggested bigger fish and I think they'd look great - a whole lap or twin size full of them@!! Thanks everyone! I love reading your comments!! Be sure and PM me when you post your Fun Fish quilts = I'd love to see them!! :-D :-D :-D ;-)

Wow!! What a compliment!! Thank you very much, SaraSewing!! You just made my day!! Yes, the more graphic the fabric, the better they'll look! I don't have any I Spy fabric but I think they would do wonders in this block! I think the reason this quilt came together so fast is because I couldn't wait to see it done!! After one fish is made up, you just CAN'T wait to do another!! A must for using up scraps!!

;-) ;) :D :thumbup:

n2, just love the way you slow down the eye with the black (or white) fabrics. Then slow it down again with the gingham (or marbled) fabrics. And then pow another burst of color in the outer border! Looking good, I'd say! G
