Another Challenge Quilt

Running late as usual, just completed the 'Out of Africa' challenge for Challenging Ourselves

I did a google search for Africa and came across the Tinga Tinga drawings and paintings.They were the inspiration for my quilt. Love the colours and naive style of paintings used.

The quilt measures approx 14.5 x 14.5 inches (37 cm square).

Time Flies

I have been keeping myself busy and doing lots of quilt top making. I now have lots of tops to be quilted. Here are some pictures of what I've been up to.


Two colour challenge -


Doorways -


Self Portrait - I think I overdid the the lips
This was a tricky one, we had to name a colour we seldom use and then make a quilt using that colour -

Christmas Gifts - Emma's Trees. Made in memory of a friend's daughter who sadly passed away leaving a very young family.
Baby Quilts made as gifts, Peter Rabbit was a panel that I free motion quilted.

A Pooh Bear Quilt made for a very recent arrival.




I know that I have other completed tops but I've looked through all my photos and it looks like I will have to get busy with the camera.
