16 Ankara string quilted blocks using a quilt-as-you-go free motion quilting technique.  Each strip carries it's own story, and joined to offer texture and tradition, paying homage to the artistry of African textiles while coming together in dynamic diamond formations that create pattern and movement as well as visual moments of both spontaneity and intentionality.  The piece is anchored by a hand stitched soft purple print hand border that ties it together.  Ready to hang  Approx 48" x 48"
