It is amazing. The size of it, I think, is important to have it make its statement. And it is blues...my favorite colors.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10891548132856312157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564846556280971762.post-62338432487440596162016-11-02T17:09:56.977-05:002016-11-02T17:09:56.977-05:00This is fantastic!

I bet preparing all your fish and geometric fabric pieces took F O R E V E R!!!

I've always wanted to try the netting technique, so I'm jealous that you got to do it before I did--it looks really fabulous! On our trip, we keep seeing fish in ceramics around here, so I also have tiles with fish on them on my mind, too. Congratulations on another great finish!OPQuilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08622702911207665333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8564846556280971762.post-64169686560210489212016-11-01T09:56:47.077-05:002016-11-01T09:56:47.077-05:00I think I must have missed you talking about start...I think I must have missed you talking about starting with a light blue background!! That piece is even more dramatic knowing that pieces were added to make the background texture.
