This is the first applique quilt I have done. I hand stitched each fish on the quilt.
I love the colors, it reminds me of Hawaii, the best place on Earth. These colors
remind me of the color of water there. I love the ocean

I love applique, and you should be proud of this one. It is gorgeous! I love the background how it does look like the ocean. You did a great job. Where did you get the pattern? You did a lovely job! I love cross stitch too, so we have that in common too. It is wonderful meeting you through the Quilt Festival.

Very pretty, but I'm going to have to go to Hawaii to check that statement about the colors! I really want to go there so it wouldn't be a hardship.
