Seasick

I LOVE that show ‘Rock of Love’!!  I saw the finale last night, and i was so glad to see him pick the only non-skank in the house!!  Anyhow, poor Daisy was all barfy on the boat and since i can relate i named this fishy ‘Seasick’!

My cats love the big fish i made, so i wrote a smaller, almost identical version!

I left an extra long tail and used it to embroider the detail, also stuff the fish before you sc across

 

I downloaded my camera and found the cutest pics that the girls took!!  And here they are:
