Something fishy ready

I have quilted and binded Something fishy, and it is on the wall as a summer quilt. I would need some autumnal one now...The quilting is a very subtle one, only some wavy lines not to make the already colourful quilt too busy. Click on to see better!

Ryan McKenna: Something Fishy

Something fishy almost finished

Last part of Something Fishy is done, I've finished the border as well. Only the batting, binding and quilting photo is missing - actually I did them too, but did not have time to make a picture. The quilting is a simple one: wavy line as the water. I really liked the outcome, it is on our dining room wall. 

Fishing in the heat - lots of catch!

I continued the Fishes: I made some turtles, a huge pike with some minnows and some other fish which are really nice but I do not have a clue how they are called. All are ready to be stitched around, which takes quite a while. I use my Bernina program 4 settings 1 / 2 for the big onoes, 0,7 / 1 for the smalls. For the pike's spots I use straight stitch with length 1.

Something fishy

I have started a new kit, called Something Fishy from Ryan McKenna. I have seen a photo of a completed one somewhere and it was so beautiful. I was really envious how can someone create such a beauty - and then I have seen it is actually a kit, I can buy it, and create the same.

I bought it a few months ago, and actually I was still a little bit scared to start it. But yesterday I took the first part, and realised it goes supereasy - it took me only one evening to finish the loudmouth. I decided to skip the fishing part (lure, rod, boots, ticket), I prefer only the waterlife. I have added the original finish as well to see how gorgeous it will be in no time!
