This African wax print from Magie Relph was chosen because the colours reminded me of the green and purple of Scottish thistles. It is one of only two printed pieces since all of the other fabrics used for Yurt panels were plain cottons or silks. It had to be made longer so a freestyle triangles border was added to the bottom edge. It was quilted at Festival of Quilts 2011 while I was demonstrating longarm quilting and there were many interruptions to stop and chat to the visitors. The random freehand zigzag design did not really show up on the busy fabric so I decided to paint into alternate areas to create a greater contrast. The crochet flowers were added to make the border more fun.
