And my quilt top is done! 80.5 x 82” in the end. I don’t have backing, so it’s going on the TBQ pile while I start a new quilt tomorrow that I’m also very excited for

This one took so much longer than I thought it would, but who’d have predicted us needing a new HVAC right in the middle of the project? Glad both are finished!

I am — slowly and carefully — removing the solid blocks from the giant fish outline and replacing them with small pieced fish blocks. It’s a lot of work to take on when the top was so close to being finished, but i think it’ll be worth it in the end

7 down, 13 to go!

Last night while browsing Pinterest, I saw this block from Bonjour Quilts and realized I could have done the entire #InarticulateFishes quilt straight set instead of on-point and now I’m despondent 😭 sharing so no one making a fish quilt has to suffer like I have

Both sections are done-ish now. I don’t hate this quilt but I’m not in love with it either. There’s some fixes needed, and I’m not sure if the borders I have planned will work. I’m going to forge ahead tho at least through the weekend — I’ve had worse turn into better

A little disappointed that the school of fish doesn’t read more as one giant fish; pretty sure it’s because the background is so scrappy. My thought is when I’m quilting to maybe quilt in additional fish shapes? Also, those lighter top/bottom triangles around the blue fish need to go - I’ll change them to darker fabrics before it’s done

I do not know how this happened but I inset a partial setting square that was laying around here as scrap, just to see if I needed to go smaller or bigger, and the letters ended up fitting EXACTLY — this was all luck and no skill and I’m happy but stunned too

Today’s quilt progress is letters! Really happy with the elongated shape

Next up is trying to fit these straight set letters into the on-point fish blocks using every quilter’s favorite — MATH

Didn’t get as much done today as hoped but the big fish are on the design wall. I’m debating whether they need bigger mouths but I really like the funny underbite

The undercounted fish have been accounted for and all the 9-patch blocks have been sewn! Tomorrow I hope to finish the two big fish sections and maybe even start on the letters

So many fishies! Putting them in blocks will have to wait until next week, I have a couple of other projects to catch up on this weekend
