Hook, Line & Sinker Free Quilt Pattern by Lisa Swenson Ruble
Hook, Line & Sinker places a fused fish and a curved fishing line at the center of a 41 inch square quilt. Lisa Swenson Ruble combines Gone Fishin’ prints with Bedrock fabrics, surrounding the appliqued center with a four-patch border and two additional fabric borders. The fishing line can be made from a folded bias strip or stitched with embroidery floss. Full-size fish-template sections are included to join before tracing the applique shape.
