Raffle Quilt - Storm at Sea
 
1 Attachment(s)
This quilt has a story. Each year, there is a fundraiser for a certain organization. Last year, the theme was Africa. This year the theme is Nautical.

I took the authentic African fabrics from last year's event and made it into this Storm at Sea quilt using the paper piecing technique.

This picture is only of the top. Now, I have it all quilted except for the borders. I was having difficulty deciding what to do there, since borders are so noticeable.

Thanks for looking!

Lovely! I never would have thought of African fabrics for Storm at Sea, but it works wonderfully!
