    Last summer my friend gave me the bright colored squares in this quilt and told me to try to do something with them. After looking at them I discovered I had the black/blue and the blue from the same line in my stash. This is what I came up with. I've had this ready to quilt for quite a while and decided to finish it last night. I quilted it diagonally through the black squares and blanket stitched around the fishes. I'll put a label on it and give it to the NICU where our GS is. Jackson's been moved up to the next level so gaining everyday.

    I really love it when your stash has the right fabric to finish a quilt. Nice quilt too.
