Ocean Reef : Relay for Life, May 2010

I had already cut most of this pieces for this quilt when my friend Ann F. asked me to make a couple of quilts for a raffle to benefit the American Cancer Society Relay for Life. The other quilt is Lady's Choice.

This is another quilt using the 9-Patch Pizazz pattern by Judy Sisneros. I've used this pattern several times; the main fish fabric is one I've also used before. Various fish were appliqued over the patchwork to "swim" over the blocks and out into the border. The body of the quilt was quilted in a swirls and waves in a blue varigated thread.
