Hawaiian Baby Fish

My best friend Sprout bought me a package of 4" Hawaiian cotton squares she found in the back of  a small drug store in Hawaii.  They were obviously cut from someone's scraps, tied with a ribbon.  Years later a friend of ours had her first baby.  She had married her husband in Hawaii, o it seemed a perfect pairing!  I dyed white muslin light blue with acrylic paint, then used rubber fish stamps in acrylic paints to stamp sea creatures on the plain blocks.  They alternate with 4-patches for this sweet baby quilt!
