Obama quilt.... just thinking

Mental stretch 1.

Ive been thinking and drawing.... how am I going to blend... the animals and trees and icons.... I think Ive settled that each piece that has significance in his past will be very lightly framed. So the quilt will be different size framed objects..... but how do I fit in the final frame? Perhaps centre top? Either side of the centre top..... sky will silhouette of girls, on the other side a woman.

Mental stretch 2.

Have to put together a few lines on where my inspiration came from. Well if you know me at all..... it is the restriction of "a few lines" that is the tough part.
