Please keep us posted on your koi project. I searched high and low for every aspect of this quilt. Brian, the ex-bil, was involved every step of the way. He even pushed for the state fair entry. He said "as many people as possible need to see this quilt." We are hoping it does well.

Tremendous undertaking is a good way saying the approximately 360 hours put into this quilt. I really enjoyed working on the fish and the dragonflies. I tend to like the intricate work and the challenge it brings to make it work in my favor.

I was hoping to enter the quilt into some sort of quilt show (other than the fairs) but come August 19, it will be proudly displayed on BIL's bed. He is designing his room around this quilt.

LOL ... it isn't my style either but I had fun working on it.
