Your urge for food for fish needs to be happy this week as I serve up two parts, one at the moment and one in your common Saturday submit.
As an appetizer, at the moment’s Throwback Thursday revisits my material collage fish named “Gombessa,” which is the African phrase for the fish we all know as a coelacanth. Coelacanth some could know are also referred to as the “dino fish” because it was thought that this species had gone extinct tens of thousands and thousands of years in the past in the course of the time of the dinosaurs. Rediscovered early within the twentieth century, these fascinating creatures reside deep within the Indian Ocean off Africa and Indonesia.
This Saturday my submit will cowl the fish class I not too long ago introduced on the Nationwide Quilt Museum, the place it so occurs “Gombessa” is at present displayed together with 11 of my different quilts. I had twenty college students, every creating their very own fish (principally based mostly on my patterns) utilizing their very own materials and in their very own type, so there might be many “species” of fish to current.
Possibly one will encourage your creativity. To create your individual fish I supply the Fantastical Fish eWorkshop. See under for extra info.
