If you have to piece the back - consider doing something interesting with it
Weaver Malaria was made during the period where I thought it was so cool to make your inner border two different colors - in this case, pink and black
Border, binding, and domestic machine quilting detail
I kinda hate the distortion I caused quilting Weaver Malaria with my walking foot - unless, of course, you believe I pieced this with chevrons =)
Weaver Malaria was featured in the June 1995 edition of Quilters Newsletter Magazine along with Zachary's Quilt, four blocks from Carnival, and my first Bernina - a hand-me-down 900 Nova from my grantmother
Weaver Malaria was in the Spring 1997 American Style Magazine advertising that year's Quilts by Men show at the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum
