The Quilt Show Puzzle: "Gentle Giant" by Jane Haworth
Do a puzzle of Jane Haworth's quilt, Gentle Giant.
Jane says of Gentle Giant, "This quilt was originally made for the 'Better World' exhibit curated by Susan Brubaker Knapp and Lyric Kinard. This quilt is dedicated to the Giraffe Conservation Foundation, the only GMO supporting the conservation of the Giraffe species in Africa. I hope it will raise awareness of the current plight of giraffes. They are on the vulnerable category on the endangered species list and one sub-species is now at the endangered level. Half of my proceeds from this quilt I will donate to GFC. In this quilt I use African fabrics, printed of African Animals, vintage silks, denim and other assorted fabrics.
