Utilizing "painted panels from an organization that takes all of the money back to the tribal members every year," Blossom Hamusek was able to create something truly inspired. In Munga's World, Blossom used "batiks, hand dyed and a variety of African and African-looking fabrics to tie in the various blocks" to the painted panels. Featuring a bevy of animals and appliqué blocks brought to life through machine piecing and machine appliqué, and displayed at PIQF 2019, Blossom's quilt certainly demonstrates that we all live in the Circle of Life.

Munga's World by Blossom Hamusek of Redding, California was featured in the Innovative category at the Pacific International Quilt Festival (PIQF) 2019.

This quilt has it all, you can almost hear the elephant trumpeting. I especially love the beads, and the wart hogs. Just spectacular in so many ways.
