A FISH STORY

He taught tech ed, she worked in registration. They loved to go fishing and that was the perfect theme for this couple's quilt. I found a batik that captured his gray hair very well, and put him in his standard plaid shirt. The marbled fabric really matched her blonde hair and she loved her polka-dot t-shirt. After this photo was taken, I added fishing rods made from twigs from the yard, and each had a string line with a tiny cloth fish attached. He vowed he would not shed a tear when leaving his job, and he didn't - until he saw this quilt. And that is the reason I create these quilts: to let friends know how much they mean! Isn't there someone you know that needs a quilt?
