Fabrics for Fish

While working on LD's Hibiscus I was reminded of my wish (from 1993) to do a series of pieces using the soft colors of Bermuda. Not my usual colors. I have collected some soft aquas, blues and yellows through the years.
This first project will be a baby quilt . Soft Aqua watery background with bold jeweled tone fish.
I spent 6/30 making 40+ fish.
