Class Description

Saturday 1 March 2025

A Kawandi is a utility quilt made by the Siddi people who are African diaspora of India.

The authenticity of this form of quilt making is extremely important, especially when using the name Kawandi.

Irene provides a unique perspective, she is Indian and her heritage is partly Siddi.

Part of your Kawandi experience will be hearing of the history of the Siddi woman and seeing some examples of original quilts.

You will create a small utility quilt using the authentic methods…with modern tools.
