I'm just back from a 5 week visit to Northern Tanzania where I taught young girls at Longido, for the Ottawa charity TEMBO. Before I left for Africa, I created a quilt which I called "Women and Water", which was just sold at an auction for TEMBO. The women in the Longido district walk long distances to gather water, carrying it back to their homes in large plastic containers balanced on their heads. One can't help but be inspired by the grace and elegance of the women, even as they execute this difficult daily task. This fabric art is 32" by 42". It has a sleeve along the top so it can be placed on a rod for hanging. See the quilt, and some photos from Tanzania, below.
