    I do a lot of hand quilting but have run into a BIG problem. My daughter wants a quilt made of animals. these Animals look real after you have sewed your pieces together. I cannot find a pattern . Can anyone help me?

    Try "Quilting Books Unlimited" They have had many patterns for animals in their booth at shows.

    Sorry I'm no help but wanted to support you in your search. Did you put realistic piece animal patterns in the search box of your computer. That's usually my first source.
