African Quilt

I'm squeaking this post in before the end of the month....keeping my goal of posting once per month. I bought the elephant batik piece in a park in South Africa two years ago. I finally figured out what to do with it! The fabrics in the quilt are about half African and half American. I've machine quilted it a bit, to stabilize it. I plan to quilt it with pearl cotton to add texture. (you can click on any of my pictures to enlarge them)
