No I didn't make this


This is an example of a Siddi quilt.  These quilts are made totally different than how we quilt.  They start with the backing and then start sewing one piece at a time to the quilt.  Well I guess I should tell you who they are.  They're africans.  Amazing quilts, very artistic.  I wonder how these quilts would be judged at the Paducha quilt show.  Resembles a Gees Bend quilt don't you think? 

I've tried the process of not having a patten and sewing at random but in never looks anything like this.  Even though theres a randomness to this quilt, theres a pattern.  What talent these gals have.
