My First Saudi Quilt Block

I've been putting this one off for a few months now but finally got round to making it...yeaaaahhhh...with the help of 'J' my mate. It took a good couple of hours but I think its a pretty good first attempt. I can see all the mistakes but I'm so very pleased with it all the same.Next is a camel (inspired by this wooden carving), and then a Saudi door, Saudi dagger, and a mosque.
I had intended to make a Saudi quilt but on reflection, think it more feasible for me to just go with a wall hanging or cushion cover to begin with until I get more experienced at it.

This is what I eventually want to work up to making...Its a Batik painting of my friends, but I want to make it in quilt version.
