Thanks for sharing these pictures. One of my sons went to Malawi and worked at the feeding centers and orphanages there. He also brought home fabrics. I really like the dresden plate. I had never seen any made with African prints. For the panel he brought home, I planned a braid pattern set in Kona black around the panel.

The first two photos are tote bags, the third is a wall hanging.
