The fish are Kona Lipstick, Valentine, Grellow, Cerise, and Carrot. The background is Kona Candy Blue. I used my wavy line stitch for the quilting so it would look like the fish were swimming in the ocean.
I love the envelope pillow method from Amanda Jean of Crazy Mom Quilts and that's how I make all my pillows. She does not use a backing on the quilted part but I do. I typically use muslin since it's inexpensive and won't show in the finished project. I had *just* enough Candy Blue to make the back of the pillow. It looks all nice and neat before I stuffed a 20" IKEA pillow form in there!

This fish pillow joins Rainbow Elephant Parade on their way to baby and big sister. I know, I finished Rainbow Elephant almost 6 months ago and hadn't sent it yet!
I think these two compliment each other well. I even did wavy quilting for both, and that was not on purpose! Happy accident, I guess.
This pillow is on my list of projects needed for my PhD (Projects Half Done) with Quilting Gail and was #2 on my list of Q1 finish along goals.
