Quilts inspired by Africa

The day was crystal clear when we visited Tala Wildlife Park in Durban. I sat transfixed watching the giraffes.
The blocks are taken from tiles I photographed, the border reminds me of the wonderful gold grass in the sunset.


This quilt is taken from pictures of tiles and images I saw on beautiful painted pots in Johannesburg. The black and white is similar to some of the patterns on the dress of the Zulu women. Posted by Picasa
