Ammended Fish Pattern

Ok, I switched things up to simplify the fish without changing things too much.

 

The base of the pattern (tail end) is 6" across. The shape is a rounded triangle (sides puffed out a bit like an arch, not straight lines) and the peak (nose of the fish) on the triangle is 5" from the base.  All other factors stay the same.  Only stuff the front half, gather behind the stuffing, tie off/stitch closed, then slice up the tail in wide ribbons.

 

Make them in orange or black, either one looks good.  Calico is do-able too but that means appliqueing orange and black patches over a white background.
