Punda Milia – Patricia Drennan
© 2009 By Patricia Drennan
I have used random curved flying geese in many quilts depicting birds, flowers, and even a tiger. The geese lend themselves especially well to striped animals. The challenge with Punda Milia (Swahili for zebra) was to construct the entire animal out of alternating black and white flying geese strips. The quilt and complete text are included in the gallery section of Flying Colors.

I love zebras (and horses) and thought it was an amazing quilt. AND that was BEFORE I realized it was constructed of flying geese. WoW
