I created all of the appliques from photos I found on Google "images" or from free clip art.

I found her (and many others) from a search on "images". I then took the image into Photoshop and made her the size I wanted for the quilt. Then printed her in pieces that fit on an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper. Taped the pieces together and then cut out the pattern. This also worked for the dolphins, the rock and the see weed.
