BrendaK asked me to post this beautiful African Queen Quilt she made for a dear friend. She is currently not able to post pictures. After quilting, I was able to drop it off in person begin June.

This turned out wonderful. I like the fabrics she used.

Beautiful quilt!
|
Great quilt!! I love all the fabrics, and the quilting is wonderful too.
|
that is lovely! all different too. I have one single block done. have it hanging in my sewing room. Hopefully one day I will add to it. If not i will put it into a quilt of different blocks.

Thank You for your comments. Anna did a wonderful job quilting this for me. The fabric in the dresses came from Africa.
I pieced this quilt top a few years ago and wasn't sure how to quilt it. Well Anna came to the rescue and did a SUPER job. I can't thank her enough. I just have to bind it and then give it to one of my best friends. BrendaK |

Yes, she did an awesome job. This quilt is very large, an extra long queen. |

That's such a beautiful quilt & full of lots of vibrant colored fabric. The quilting is perfect!
|
Looks fantastic
|
You both have done an A+ job making and quilting this lovely quilt. I’m anxious to see photos of the friend receiving it! I’d probably cry, tears of joy! I wanted to make one as soon as I saw it. I still haven’t but yours may inspire me.

Great quilt and nice fabric selection for the dresses!
|
This is a beautiful quilt! African Queens are the newest Sunbonnet Sues! Love it!
|
I found my old info on this block and it's now called International Sisters. I want to put different shades for all the Sisters.

Thanks for letting us know the alternative name. I think African Queen is very fitting though for BrendaK's quilt, as it has all African fabrics and who it is going to. |
Very nice use of ethnic fabrics
|
Beautiful quilt! Well done!
|
That is lovely!
|
Gorgeous quilt using authentic African fabrics and marvelous quilting makes for a generous and kind gift to a friend.
Love it. |
Gorgeous! Love the colors and pattern.
