What is a Kawandi?
Kawandi are a traditional craft practiced by African Diaspora peoples in Western India. Traditional Kawandi are made from recycled saris. They are constructed from the outside in, which makes them a unique change of pace from western quilting traditions. If you love the texture of hand quilting, you will love making Kawandi. It is also a fantastic way to use up your scraps.
In class we will get you started on making your own mini Kawandi style quilt. I will demonstrate the techniques I am familiar with, from beginning with the finished edges
