Comments:
I chose to name this quilt "Bungo Jungo" because I made it with a toddler in mind. I imagined hoq a toddler might pronounce "Bungle in the Jungle". I used to work in a paint and wallpaper store and the jungle print was a floor sample of special order fabric that co-ordinated with certain wallpapters. I thought the jungle scene was too busy to use any other prints with it, so I decided to use solid colors around it, so I decided to use solid colors around it. I think the outside border completes it. I also did a unique binding on this quilt. I decided to fold some of the border over to the back and sew it down. I used my sewing machine's sepentine stitch for the "border binding"
