Fabusous video Rob! I think when I first watched this a few years back I was a bit intimidated with all the steps and work. However, I just finished a fairly large one today. As I was reviewing this video I found the instructions PERFECT. Thanks so much!

You are BEYOND Genius, Rob. My kids were reared in Kailua on the beach and also spent MANY joyful hours snorkeling in Hanauma Bay. As Much as I LOVE this quilt design, your joyful spirit and the way you so generously explain your Brilliant design sensibilities are even More appreciated. Thank you! 🥰

Loved your kits you did and sold at Quilting on the Beach at Karens and Rob shop> Quilt Passions, in Kona Hawaii. You always had a full class. Had a blast. I still buy fish fabrics;)

Another great art quilt! I've bought 3 of your art patterns and your Reef Shark kit and just completed making a board so I can start making them. I really enjoyed seeing your work when I was at MSQC last June at the Academy. You're a good teacher and motivator! I look forward to watching all your videos! Thanks for taking the time to make them for us to enjoy.
