The beautiful fabrics from Tanzania always seemed to call
me. After our last trip to the Southern
Highlands of Tanzania I made a string quilt for a silent auction at our Synod
Assembly. (See previous post May 10,
2013))
I had many gorgeous pieces of fabric left and many were
gifts. Consequently I decided to fashion
queen size quilts for each of our children.
Two years and four months later I completed this project.
Quilt #1 (which was the one I just finished) is also a
string quilt with a piano key small border.

Quilt #4 is not pieced but fabric repeating a tree and
blossoms with a small piping between the two halves.
Quilt #5 is fussy cut with figures framed by the blocks in a
diagonal pattern and framed with a two color border.
Yes there are 5 quilts and 4 children…this was to ensure
that everyone had a choice!
