I had a dark purple print waiting for a project; and I wanted to try the Warm Wishes pattern using a dark focus fabric. Then I quilted interlocking gold fish bowls (ok, they're circles) to complete the theme. I didn't have enough of anything for the backing, so it is pieced. Note, the purple color is fairly accurate in picture #5. A close-up of the print is #6 (but the color is wrong), and the back is #7. This was my first attempt at the Warm Wishes pattern, and I'm fairly pleased with the results! So glad you ladies posted your pictures and got me inspired!

Thanks Sharon; The gold fishes print is "good stuff" but the coordinating fabrics are from "that other store."
