Something "Fishy" Kid's Quilt

Yesterday I quilted a little girl's quilt for my friend Karen.   I loved this fun little quilt!


The fish each have three stripes made from chenille by the inch strips.  I quilted the child's name in this fish block.


I used a light blue thread and did watery-looking stippling.  I did not quilt into the fish, which makes them look slightly dimensional.



 The corners of the quilt have starfish blocks, and the chenille becomes seaweed.


I know this will be a well-loved quilt for a lucky little lady!
