Just finished piecing this quilt. The design is borrowed from a book of African quilts, the pattern is Cotton Leaf, which is a Bear Paw variation.
The three khaki prints were all shirts bought at a local op shop in one shopping trip. The white fabric is one of Peter's old Brooks Bros non-iron shirts, as is the French blue. The pale blue fabric is another op shop find; it's a soft linen, and horrible to work with as it moves around a lot. The binding will be made from diagonally cut strips of the middle khaki stripe fabric.
