Fish & Forest Quilt

[@TheSargesons]

Wow, Nikki! Just Wow!!! It's spectacular and so uniquely You. When you were filming the transition from the scallops to the beach, the bubbles looked just like tumbled rocks - the kind you find on the beach. Then when you got to the area of the fish, the bubbles were definitely bubbles (not sure if it was just my brain "seeing" them under the water). Your creativity knows no bounds and I'm so grateful to you for having the courage to share your gifts so openly with all of us. Staying tuned with intense anticipation for your next ideas. Thank you so much. Love y'all ❤

Wow wow wow! I mean, WOW times 500. What a great quilt. Cute as can be, so bright and colorful, and cozy to the max. Congratulations on finishing such a creative quilt. And you inspire me … ALWAYS! ♥️♥️♥️

[@PinCutSew]

Thank you! 🤗😁

[@craftdipper]

This turned out beautifully. Such a happy quilt. A little bit of summer in the middle of winter! 🐟🌲🌳😎

[@tinatippin5705]

Hope you don't get tired of hearing just how cute, awesome, amazing and wonderful this quilt is because it's all those things! Love, love, love it.

[@PinCutSew]

Thank you so much 😁

[@dianezybrands8250]

Wow! I mean seriously, WOW! I’ve been looking at that in your background for so long and now it’s finished! So very stunning! You should be so proud. I love improv and am definitely going to get your new booklet. Thank you again for sharing your super creative brain. We are all so lucky to follow you. This is really one of my favorite quilts. You go girl!😘

[@frontofficed.burnell-power6288]

Nikki you are my hero! Thanks so much for this quilt. I am beginning to truly prefer my 'homey" fmq than professional. Yours brought it over the top and says "one of a kind". And it is. Thanks for going thru the hassle of filming and take us along with you.

[@kathygroves4174]

What a wonderful way to use up your scraps! It’s a one-of-kind quilt and a job well done! 😊 Love it ❤.

[@eljay5623]

Right! Couldn’t be cuter!

[@catherineb6565]

Said it before, I LOVE how your creative brain works. 😍

[@PinCutSew]

Thank you so much!

[@MaryAnnAlulis]

Right! Who needs math to make a fun quilt!? Love your quilt style, Nikki.

[@cynthiafeldberg4782]

Does that quilt pattern remind anyone of fishscales? Lovely quilt.

[@donnamerritt9756]

I love how your quilt turned out. Your videos are fun to watch. Thank you.

[@joycebeck2518]

Adorable quilt! And really helpful tutorial, especially the free motion quilting part. It was so helpful to hear you say that you free motion quilt in one direction then the other. Other tutorials have instructed moving always in one direction, which I find to be so cumbersome. To see your quilt come out with beautiful stitches and no puckering was inspiring.

[@rachelleenya5994]

1:42 Not today 😅😅😅 Excited to see your finished quilt. Because of the improv style you film about, I'm gaining the confidence to attempt a quilt. Maybe a mini quilt first.

[@AlpineSprinkles]

That is a beautiful quilt. That curved piecing is amazing.

[@kreativ.artina]

I really like that you changed the quilting for the fish. It looks stunning. I like your way of bildingup that quilt and combing the colors

[@Chellee-f5i]

I love how your mind works 😊 That is true artistry !!!!❤❤

[@JoyHarper-fq6zh]

Love the quilt, and love the music you chose for the background! Sometimes the music can be excruciating, but not this time!

[@SonyaChu-d6e]

Super cute!❤ Congrats on your fabulous finish!🎉

[@EllyQueue]

Really love this quilt and marvel at how even the blocks are with so many curves bc I struggle with stretched blocks! Going to purchase the digital book for improv! Your videos are so helpful.

[@BAMom780]

That quilt is so stunning! I wish I had that kind of creativity 😊

[@zormier2002]

Your quilt is adorable. You should enter it into competition

[@PinCutSew]

I hope to enter it in the KY state fair 🫶🏻

[@daxxydog5777]

Adorable! I have one more quilt project on my list, then I will be able to move on to something different. This looks so up my alley!

[@jenjoy4353]

Author and fabric artist. Well done.

[@LakesideQuiltmakingArts]

Clever approach to your quilting

[@sandramurdoch-le9vj]

I am one to hold onto a few flimsies, because I have to wait if I want to longarm them. I met a woman at my local quilt shop who said she had 51! Holy wow! Love your fish, beach and forest quilt!

[@helenpeddycord2241]

Love your end results! You are so inspirational! 💕💕💕🧵

[@romonaelrod7870]

I love your quilt. It is so cute.

[@marisah5724]

You're my favorite, Nikki! I love IMPROV. I bought all 3 of your PDF downloads on Etsy just now. Can't wait to read them! Where do you shop for fabrics? I feel like that is the secret sauce to making your beautiful projects. If you haven't already, please make a video about how you choose colors and fabrics for your designs. Keep 'em coming! Thank you so much

[@rasar7367]

Just ordered your 3 books. You have inspired me to continue my quilting journey. ❤

[@PinCutSew]

Thank you, I hope you like them!

[@Sewwithdebee]

So cute - love improv

[@barbmckinlay5108]

I loved every second of this video. You always teach me something. Thank you!

[@deborahwilson2857]

I have quilted two quilts on my domestic and made a wave pattern. I love it!

[@kathythompson7229]

Love it!! Homey and cuddly.

[@Sewmena918]

Your quilt turned out amazing! I like the idea of the homespun on the back. This is a first place winner for sure! 🥇

Just gorgeous!!!!! Looooove all of it! ❤️💕🪡🧵✂️👏🏻

[@annfrederick4467]

So very cute! Love all your quilts! I ordered your curvy improv book yesterday, can’t wait for it to arrive!🥰

[@ginnyandersen8527]

So fun! I was thinking I probably would have added mountains above the forest. It feels so like a river with banks. Guess it would morph for each maker by where they live, right? Good going, Nikki!

[@karenfrancis2478]

It looks fabulous! I can’t wait to see what you make next.

[@coreygilles847]

It's adorable! Love it❤
