"Fishing for Advice" ;)

This is not quilted yet. I need ideas on how to quilt this on my frame. I had planned on using a wave pantogram, but with the appliqued fish, I am afraid I might run into them. The little border is actually a mint green. Can't tell that with the picture.

This quilt is made for a friend of ours that will be retiring from the Navy in April. It is a surprise and I can't wait for him to get it. I know he will appreciate it.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

that's awesome...very creative...

very cute, can you use your waves and go around your fish? maybe just echo quilt around them...or add a row of bubbles coming up from each one? just some thoughts...
is sure turned out good!

Awesome!

I love the color gradation! It really does resemble the ocean!

Oh WOW that is neat. I love it.

That is beautiful!!!

What a great quilt!!!!

Beautiful! I like the waves idea - could you do it freehand then avoid the fish? And maybe some outline quilting round the whales? I FMQ on my domestic and have no LA experience so don't really know whether this is possible... I like the idea of bubbles coming out of the fishes mouths too - could you do this with silvery beads increasing in size?

Great job
