Fishy Business

[m***@gmail.com]

This is the quilt I am working on except mine is a full size quilt. It will be 10 inch blocks with 6 blocks across and 7 blocks long, alternating water block then fish. I plan on putting an inner 2 1/2 inch border and 5 1/2 inch outer border. My fish will be appliqued onto a solid color water material and will cut it 11 inch squares for the applique and then square it off when done to 10 inches. In the past I have had problems with shrinkage from applique, so this solves that problem. I am also using a different bigger fish. My fish will be small calico prints with different color fins. Hope this inspires some of you to try it. My calico fish are exotic looking.

If you care to go see. Usually Brian helps me with this but decided to try it on my own first.
Enjoy,

Hello Brian,
Have to thank you again for helping me with my internet address. Glad we have you to help us gals. I don't know why my computer did not highlight the whole address but you do have to type it all in because of that. I will keep trying.

I copied and pasted the address you provided into the address bar of
google chrome : " www.mccall's.quickquilts.com/fishy business" into the
search bar in Google Chrome, and while it did not take me directly to
the article, it did take me to a page that said: "Did you mean:
www.mccall's.quick quilts.com/fishy business" and then gave a list of
results that consisted of: 1 Link to a genral page for subscribing to
McCalls Quick Quilts Mag 2 The link I posted to the picture of the
fishy business quilt 3 A pdf file with several templates for applique,
including the fishy business applique. Those were just the first 3
results, it gave a bunch of other results that I did not look at, but
perhaps your address is actually a better one than mine was.
