The Zoo Quilt

This is the first quilt I made.  My quilting friend who started me out encouraged me to create something special for the birth of my first niece, and helped me to pick out the fabrics that I would need.  I created several templates for the various animals from drawings that I could find online.  Then I used a fusible interfacing to transfer the animal drawings onto pieces of fabric.  I pieced a few of the background pieces together as needed and top stitched each piece of each animal, tree, etc. to the background fabric.  The finished product was long arm quilted by a friend.
