New Vest for a New Year



I started the New Year by making a new vest.  Bought this African mud cloth a while ago, and I thought it would make a nice garment.  It was woven in Mali, a country in the news lately.  I am sorry for their troubles, but I am glad to have this wonderful fabric to wear.  If only their lives could be  as beautiful as their art...

  1. Just using the fabric and wearing the garment tells people that the Mali artists exist - that's pretty cool - I learned something!
