Well I did it, pics of my very first quilt for the Uganda project. I know this should be posted in projects but I wanted to show the quilt from different sides and so please excuse my posting it here.

I have to say a HUGE THANK YOU to Jan. I cannot tell you how gratifing this experience was, more than anything I have ever made for a paying customer. I had never done anything like this and coming from a family of quilters, it was definetly on my "to do list". I took this on as though I was going on safari. First I had to make sure I had my weapons, rotary cutter, t-square, grid board, fabrics (can you beleive I had everything here) etc. Once that was established, had to make a plan on how to put this together, done. Then it was the thrill of the hunt, had to find my designs and then I was off to the execution. It went pretty well, there are a few little things that I did not consider (like my lines lining up in the center block) but when I consider that I have never done this before I am REALLY pleased with the outcome. The wording in the middle panel says "GOOD NIGHT" and I decided to place Megannes sweet little elephant in underneath. So I hope you all like it as much as I do. I will post in projects as well that way you can zoom it and see the designs better.
Hugs to Jan and to all of you,
Michelle
