    I have 4 patterns for fish, you would have to take the applique patterns to a copier and shrink them down a bit though.

    If you are willing to applique' it why not just draw it the size you need and include a bit more if you do needle turn or have it to size if you machine stitch it. Then you could make it the style fish you want too. :D
