This is the first time I've mixed my two color families and I think I like it. If you are familiar with the block, you may have noticed that mine are missing something. I really don't like that Angelica is the only one with air bubbles and they are so fiddly, I decided to just skip them. I'm probably doing a different layout, so I didn't even add in a background piece to make up for it, though I may add that in later.
I realize that the name of the block is "Angelica," but I had Harry Belafonte's Angelina in my head the entire time I was making these!
I am now only two blocks behind. Next block is this Saturday and I'm hosting along with Kathleen, so I'll be ready with the Tony the Turtle blocks and my suggestions for avoiding the mistakes I made.
Beautiful.

What a lovely colour combination, these are lovely. I must remember this one, it would make a beautiful quilt in the shades you have used. Nice fish, I wouldn’t have added the bubbles either.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your fish and their colors very much. I also want to YouTube and listened to Harry Belafonte and Angelina. It was a great song to listen to at 7 a.m.
ReplyDeleteEmily, I love have all 4 fish have slight variations in colors but coordinate with each other!
ReplyDeleteCute fish! I have the fish done, but not Preppy, so I need to get crackin' on those blocks and the turtles. I skipped ahead to get my post blocks done and ready.
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute, will make a fun quilt.
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Love those bright blues and purples!
ReplyDeleteBlue and Purple rock together!!! I learnt that recently.
ReplyDeleteThose fishes are so cute they swam right into my heart :-)
