Well, almost - still have to do the applique. Not perfect but it is finished. I don't think my son will notice the "could be improved" parts I hope. Just had to show someone - I think my son (adult) will like this non girly quilt. I keep telling him about it but he hasn't seen it yet. Maybe now he will come home soon and have a look and collect his quilt. Have a great idea for the back but will have to wait awhile. Going to go back and work on my kitten/flower nine patch.

I LOVE IT!!! You did an awesome job. I have that same safari print fabric-what a grand outcome!! I am sure he will be awed by it!

WOWWWWW!!!! THat's an award winner!!!!!! GREAT job!

Very striking.

I'm not a real fan of OBWs but your's is wonderfully laid out. Very nice job.

I love how the zebra's look like they'll jump out of the quilt, great job, I love it.

Outstanding!!!He will love it!

I love the animals added to the swirls. It's like a safari dream squence.

Oh WOW!!!!! That is totally AWESOME!! Ah-hem....now I have calmed down, lol....I can't believe the way the animals almost jump out at you, but each time I look I find something to ooo and awwwwh about...Hey, tell you what, if he doesn't come home to collect it soon, I will be knocking at your door. (Uh, or I would if I had your address :lol:

Wonderful how you've done the animals! What a great touch. Is it fusible appliqué?

Very nice. :thumbup:

So cool. Will you let us know what he thinks of it? :-D

Very pretty! I love how you included some whole pieces of the animals. That black and white is stunning! Great job!

I don't generally care for OBW designs but I love this one! Do you remember what the animal print line was called? I'd love to find some of it.

I am impressed!!! It is beautiful. As others have said, I love the way the animals pop out at you. Great job.

That is truly beautiful. I am so jealous. I am going to start and OBW in a month or so and the Asian print has dragons on it. I'm wondering if I could use your technique on the dragons.

Are the animals appliqued on top? I thought at first they were pieced in, but now I'm wondering. I'd love to know how you did it if you don't mind sharing. I'm definitely going to save the picture for inspiration! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Unbelieveable!

WOW,What a dream!! How did you make the pattern?

Gorgeous!

Spectacular.....!!!! WOW

Wow :thumbup: :thumbup:

OMG - that made me gasp! It's absolutely fantastic. If he doesn't like it, I'm going to try and beat Nursie76 to your door!

DS will love his quilt, very nice job!

oh what talent. i actually see wild animals in there! gorgeous!!

OMG, that's awesome! That blew me away, made me sit back in my seat to take it in. I really love it!

WOW, that is spectacular! I can't even imagine how you could do anything like that.

WOW, is that cool or what???!?!!!! SUPER!

That is probably one of the best OBWs I've ever seen!! The author of the book could take lessons from you!!! The animal placement is spectacular! Your blocks are pretty great too!!

Words fail me, it is just too awesome!!!! My grown son (43) would love this quilt. Good thing he won't see it, he would want me to make one just like it.

Awesome Job!!! good for you!

Love it love it! What a spectacular quilt - love the surprise of the animals popping out. Made me smile all over! Well done, and thank you for sharing :)

That is one of the coolest quilts I have ever seen. I love it. I'm sure he will too. Great job.

WOW!! That is really cool, how clever of you. Did you create the pattern?

Very very nice! I love the layout and think you have done a wonderful job. Thank You for sharing.
