    My sister-in-law Vicki made this wall hanging for her home in Montana and I quilted it for her. Again I was lost on how to go about quilting it, I searched the Internet and when I went on a Quilt Shop Hop, I spotted a pattern that gave me this idea. Her work is raw-edge applique.

    I guess it might be a good idea to add the attachment? Ya Think? I don't multi-Task to well!!!! :oops:

    I love the quilting and the fish colours are wonderful. My Son would love that.

    That's really cool! The quilting makes it look like the fish is swimming.

    That is one neat wall hanging, the fish are very realistic and look like they are swimming and jumping. Beautiful work the both of you.
