Fishing, by me

I have a 10yo great-nephew who loves to fish like me and recently moved to a new home on a lake. I designed this quilt on EQ8 amd used Naturescape fabrics….I made this in a day….lol… This will rock his world…he basically sleeps with his fishing pole. Lol…

Beautiful quilt and beautiful panel, very peaceful. I too love the layout of your blocks, would never have thought of that design.

Very nice, the gold and blue really give it a glow.

I have always found panels really hard to work with, simply because designing around them is a challenge. I love how you've framed the fish.

Thank you! I always design my borders first, …..determine block size, then cut panel to fit. That’s the easiest for me…
