African mask blocks

My quilting Bee had a fun project lately.

We made African masks using a picture as a guide.

Each one of us made either one or two each.

These two are the ones I made.

The top one is made using fabric paper.

The other one I just used African looking fabric,

and my bleach discharge fabric for the background.

It has a bit of my hand dyed fabric in it too.

Then we had a drawing to see who won

all of the blocks.

There were nine blocks total.

Judy was the winner and she was thrilled.

Here are all of the blocks.

Click on the photo to enlarge it,

so you can see the detail more easily.

Aren't they wonderful!

Next month we are doing a

tree block.

Each block will be 12 inches square

when finished, just like these.

Then we do anything we want,

any kind of tree,

any kind of embellishment.

Then we will draw again

to see who wins them all!

This is FUN!
