quilt

Africana

Freehand, raw edge appliqué. Many of the fabrics are of African origin. I was thinking of the political troubles in Africa and Asia while working on this quilt. One of the fabrics actually has a soldier marching peasants through a field at gunpoint. After I sewed it in, it upset me so much to see it, I put the green fence over it. Now it is behind the scenes but it is still happening. Made in 1992. Size 57"x72".
