Default My Dead Fish Quilt

This was my first experience with a zig zag pattern and I didn't realize that you are not supposed to use prints with a one way design - after I did the first two rows I noticed that some of my fish were swimming upside down - My cousin pointed out that is what fish do after they expire!

Anyway I loved the colors on the original photo so I tried to duplicate them as much as possible. I made this quilt for one of the Nurses where I work that does not want to know the sex of her baby - I hope he/she enjoys it and not too many people notice the imperfections!
