Last year I made some Nelson Mandela paper collages for an exhibition. I have one left which is keeping me company in my studio.
After rummaging around for fabric I came across small pieces of shweshwe left over from the collage project. Shweshwe = used by traditional African women to make dresses).
I combined it with iconic South African images on my notebook covers
The Protea (our national flower) and the magestic Kudu (large antelope)
My inspiration - Nelson Mandela (fondly called Madiba)
