Default Colours of Africa

I saw this on the cover of an old British Patchwork & Quilting magazine on eBay and just had to make it. I'm quite pleased with the way it turned out (although I should have made sure all the stray threads were removed before I photographed it ). Thanks for looking!

really nice job on the body parts. They don't look awkward at all. The whole picture is nicely done.

I love it. Great job. Did you make up your patterns piece just from looking at the magazine cover? I would love to make one. Thank you for sharing.
