This is a great quilt!

The perfect "man" quilt! For one that loves to fish anyway.

All of the blue water prints are lovely and mix well together.

I decided to quilt a water design near all of boats and fish in the water scene fabric. I outlined some key elements like fish, birds ect.

I added fishing lines to the poles, clouds, and texture in all the other areas.

I used warm and white batting.

I quilted this on my 26 inch INNOVA.

Thanks for looking.

Hubby will say a sunny day in the islands where he usually goes fishing but we do live in Florida.
