As you do, I did a google search for Africa and came across the Tinga Tinga drawings and paintings.They are the inspiration for my quilt.
The quilt measures approx 14.5 x 14.5 inches (37 cm square).
We are a group of 20 women, from Australia, Canada, Ireland, United Kingdom, and United States who are interested in challenging our quilting and art skills. We have banded together to challenge ourselves every two months with a different theme or pallet.

Jackie D.#Challenge 6 Out of Africa
I've finally finished my Out of Africa Challenge. I enlarged a drawing from the internet. Then I coloured it with black water-colour oil pastel and quilted around the zebra and quilted the background. It's 15.5 inches square.
Tammy #6 Challenge Out of Africa
I took a class on African embroidery in April, so this was a great chance to use what I learned there. I loved the bright colors against black, seems to be one of my favorite colored combos.

Gudrun #6 Challenge Out of Africa
 |
Panel by North Cott, captured my imagination . It was my first attempt at Trapunto & thread painting. It has been lanquishing. I used bamboo from our garden, & found broken camp bracelets to hang. |
It hangs above our dog crate.....the animals corner :))
