My first ever quilt that I will be sending Jan for the Uganda project. Designs are from many sites (if anyone wants info for them, let me know)

For those looking for the flag of Uganda, it is on sale (90% off) until Wednesday at embroidery design. The sale ends Jan, 25th so HURRY. There are several but this one is by Bella Mia Designs.

Hugs Pam .

You have done a great job with your quilt. Well done.

Love the layout and the colors great job

Looks good

Good work, Michelle! It looks great.

Michele, you have done a fantastic job on your first quilt and I bet now it won't be your last. When I first started quilting 15 yrs ago my friend told me then that there is no such thing as a "perfect" quilt. No such thing as quilt police. But, only you know where your mistakes are. Your quilt is awesome. Hugs..Carol

I am a bit of a perfectionist but I allowed myself a few oops on this one. I will learn for my next one.

This is so impressive. I'm having trouble believing it's your first quilt -but no doubt at all that you won't be able to stop now. Amazing job. What a star you are. Keeping with their culture was such a thoughtful idea too.

Oh thank you,
I have to admit that this is probably one of the nicest projects I have completed. I was excited throughout the entire project and kept thinking of the children when they see all these quilts. It probably won't be the last. I have been bitten. LOL

No battind used in these just 2 cottons together. The deadline is 1st of May, check the posts in community by hightechgrammy (Jan) and jump on board. She needs 80 quilts and if you can help I am sure she will be happy.

Michelle, This is beautiful beyond words!!! I wish I was this creative! Thank you for your imagination! It looks like a SAfari too!
hugs hugs and more hugs, Jan I keep laughing with tears whenever I see these quilts and know the love that goes in them. Be sure to write a letter, send a picture with it!

Not sure about the picture, do not want the poor child having a bad dream about a big white lady on their first night with their new quilt LOL, but will send a note,

Wonderful quilt...you should be very proud of yourself!
