    Default African quilt for a friend

    I just finished and sent this lap size quilt to a friend of mine, she loves African stuff. I hope she likes it, I had fun making it although it seems a bit busy I still love it. I made a pillow to go with too.[ATTACH=CONFIG]540589[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]540590[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]540591[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]540592[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]540593[/ATTACH]

    Made me smile when I saw the wonderful colors. Like how you used leftover fabric to make a tassel for the pillow.

    All the fabrics are perfect for an African themed quilt. I'm sure she'll love it!

    Thanks all for the kind comments. I just heard from her and she says she loves it, so I am happy about that, she said it was like Christmas!
