    A strange request from our second granddaughter that graduates from HS this month. She wants a zebra quilt for her college dorm room next fall. But no animals. Found a black and white zebra stripe then a black on black stripe. Combined with a white on white, I came up with this quilt. Not a great quilting job but found it hard to manage on my regular machine. While I was at it I hid names of her family and pets in the stitching. Thought you might like to see my version of a zebra quilt.
