I'll be sending it out! Lol! I'm not ready for that challenge...YET! With this quilt I learned how to square up a block, almost have my 1/4 inch seam down, work with fabric on the bias, and fussy cut fabric the best I could. And it finished perfectly square! First time ever!

My long arm quilter will ask what I want tho.

First congrats on a perfectly square quilt! Second that quilt is great. Love all the fishy fabric. I know a couple men that would love that. I'd think of an overall quilting design for the quilt, since the fabrics are pretty busy. It would be awesome if there was an overall fish design or even waves.

Beautiful quilt. I really like the way you've highlighted the panel with the diamond. Sorry - no advice on quilting motifs.

Cheers, K

Beautiful quilt! I think waves like you would see across a lake and like waves that have a criss cross effect. Where the interloock like ~~~~~ almost like a wavy figure 8.
