I’m visiting family in Las Vegas, Nevada, at the moment. The temperatures here are about as high as they get during our Baringo dry season, but here everyone lives in air conditioning. I would rather be out of doors, but that would require a completely new architectural strategy for this city!

Next week I will be heading out to London, Canada (near Toronto), for the London International Quilt Festival. Organized by my good friends Garnet Smalley and Suzanne Agnew, this event promises to be the first ever major festival featuring quilts about and from Africa, and it’s one you will not want to miss!
On tap are more than 150 quilts from the Kenya Quilt Guild, at least ten pieces from the Tentmakers of Cairo exhibition, fifty small works that comprise the South African “Major Minors” exhibition, and several quilts made by a group of men from African Faces Contemporary Arts Studio in Nigeria. Workshops will be offered, taught by Bev Rebelo, Paula Benjaminson, Magie Relph and myself.
