    Default Another UFO Done - The Lion Sleeps Tonight
    A while back I asked for advice on the quilting of my lion. I took it, and quilted the leaves and echoed the lion, and it came out very nice. Here he is, snoozing away.

    Your lion looks very content asleep under his tree. I like how you quilted it. Nice job.

    Love it! I like how the tree goes into the border.

    Yes, I did. I found an outline of a lion, and drew up the tree free hand. And 65 leaves. Whew!!

    Thanks JenOSU. I have seen others where something goes into the border and always thought it looked cute.
