African quilt - additional info

Sorry if this is a repeat but not sure the first one went through. Sorry to be so long in sending additional info and close ups of my African quilt but had surgery which slowed me down somewhat. The blocks are machine embroidery and appliqued. The pattern is from Anita Goodesigns called African Safari and were sewn on my Viking SE sewing/embroidery machine. Hope this answers all the questions!

I love safari animals (I have them all over my room), therefore I love this quilt. It's very beautiful

Thank you for posting. I tried to decide on a favorite block but they're all great! Just out of curiosity, is there one that you're fond of or one that misbehaved while in progress?

Thanks for your comments. I especially enjoyed the African lady. Didn't have problems with any particular block, however, I will say the instructions called for Quilt as You Go and I probably wouldn't do that again. Maybe just me but had more problems with the technique. If I did one again I would definitely embroidery the blocks as I normally do.
