    Maybe send the fish fabric and have people add to that. I find it hard for fish fabric to stand out against blue fabric as most fish fabric has blue as back ground. I often add brights I pick up in the fish fabric like little splashes of red or yellow.

    You can send the WOW and ask for the fish effect ... either pieced, appliqued or embroidered. Once you have them back, you could use the fabric crayons and "iron" waves to all the pieces... it would give it a uniform look through out regardless what type of fish were on the WOW.

    I'm anxious myself to try it out. Haven't figured out the right combo yet.

    My goodness, go off for a few days and what happens? The boom 16 thread is hijacked and becomes the Boom 17 preview thread. Roflol. Love it though. I'm Already trying to think up ideas to go with your fabrics. Cannot wait to see what everyone comes up with! Keep it up!!!

    A friend is trying to find a digital download of the quilt pattern "best dressed". Shes found the paper pattern for $14.99 and $15.00 but prefers a digital. Has anyone seen this pattern? Thanks

Thank you all for making these beautiful blocks for me. I love the blue/white as well as red/white quilts. Thank you thank you thank you!
