I really enjoyed making this quilt. Just posting these pictures makes me want to design another one! I started by cutting scrappy blue squares. Some of them weren't quite big enough so I just added to them until they were. Then I put a goldfish on each one. When putting the quilt together, I added a half-square to the top or bottom of alternating vertical rows so that they weren't all swimming in a grid pattern. I added the vines to the sides after it was assembled. Then, because I didn't want the fun to end, I put snails on the vine. :-)

Very creative. Love all the different blue batiks but especially the frog one at the bottom.

Thanks! Oh yes, I forgot to mention the frog :-) There is a frog in the bottom left corner of the outer border.
