A little bit of painting,&nbsp; machine quilting, and lots of love!</p>http://www.quiltingdaily.com/media/p/17168.aspxTue, 23 Mar 2010 17:56:53 GMTdd4ad8cd-147d-404a-a568-5abd2115af5b:17168braidandstitch2<p>These newly weds are captured from the eye of a camera lens&nbsp; at sunset, it depicts a traditional wedding scene from West Africa.&nbsp; The bride is richly dressed in pearls and gold, and the use of Kente fabric on this day is traditional, royal, and very original.</p> <p>A lot of gold and pearl beads have been put into this art work&nbsp; making it so enriching to look at and touch, but I prefer to leave it in silhouette form in order to leave a lot to the imagination</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
