    These are pictures of the quilt that I made my mom for christmas. All the animals are machine embroidered & then I pieced the African grass lands & animal prints around it.

    Thank you. I fretted over it for several months. I fell in love with the grass fabric. It's not real big. 60 x60. Just lap size. Just wanted to find the right fabric.

    Beautiful embroidery! Your mom will treasure it. Where did you get the designs? What size hoop?
