Bass & Freshwater Designs

Nothing says fishing like a trophy bass. These bass, trout, and freshwater fish are perfect for shirts, tackle bags, and cabin décor. Stitch a single fish as a bold accent, or pair it with a "gone fishing" saying for the angler in your life.

Tropical & Ocean Designs

For a splash of color, you can't beat tropical fish. This is where the ocean fish, koi, and colorful swimmers come in — just right for beach towels, tote bags, pillows, and coastal décor with a bright, watery vibe.

Cute & Saying Designs

Sometimes a few words say it best. These "gone fishing," "catch of the day," and other playful sayings pair perfectly with fun fish designs. They're great for kids' shirts, tote bags, and cabin keepsakes with a little extra personality.

Fish Designs for Gifts

Sometimes a handmade gift says it all. Add a fish design to a shirt, blanket, tote bag, pillow, towel, or tackle bag, and you've made something they'll love. Great for anglers, lake lovers, Father's Day, birthdays, or anyone happiest with a rod in hand.
