LoisF, my friend loves zebras so thats why I used the zebra fabric. Took searching for the perfect zebra fabric and after ordering 3 different fabrics, the 3rd one fit the bill. I started this quilt back in say 2015 so she's been waiting a long time for it. This became my May UFO finish along with 2 kitty quilts using the leftover scraps. Her cats have already grabbed their quilt.
