My Indigo Color quilt is done!  The South African Shweshwe fabrics featured in the quilt are made with indigo dyes. I added some Kona® cottons and one other dark blue fabric. 

Just as I did with the pincushion I made with these fabric, I flipped one of the pieces in this quilt to show a portion of the da Gama Three Cats (Trade Mark) logo which is printed on the back of this company's fabrics. The cats can be seen in the second from bottom row, the 3rd block from the left! 

Here's the back of the quilt, with my Labrador mix, Hazel, who came with me on the photo shoot!

And a photo of the entire quilt. I love it! There is so much motion in the shweshwe fabrics! I designed the pattern I used for this quilt.
