    I love the fabrics and all the creative touches with the beads and hand accented blocks are stunning. Your design and layout was just beautiful....

    Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous! My husband is from Ivory Coast and would love a quilt like that. The next time he goes home I will have him bring home some fabric so I can make him one.

    Your quilt is absolutely breathtaking! I can't say enough about it - words just do not do it justice. The colors, the layout, the fabric - everything is just beautiful. This is truly a work of art - it should be in a museum! I love African art, the animals and the colors used. Thank you so much for showing us this wonderful quilt!

    Absolutely love your quilt. I have been collecting African fabric for awhile now and plan to do one in the future. Love the SA flag. I'm originally from JHB but will never forget where I came from.

    Very lively and colorful! Where in Africa did you purchase the fabric and beads?
