Featured Quilt - "Buzzed Birds" by Latifah Saafir

Why the Name Buzzed Birds? The prompt for Latifah's (Show 2502) quilt was to create a modern quilt based off of a traditional block using Denyse Schmidt Modern Solids. She choose to use the block called Birds in the Air. The name comes from a story that birds were getting drunk from fermented berries...you get the rest.
