And Stateside...a dress of Congo cloth

Lois Hess Nofziger choose her Congo cloth at the "market" at Central District Conference meetings in June of 2010. Look what she made!

Here is a picture of me in the dress I made standing by our garden gate. 
The experience of making a dress with this fabric from the
Congo left me with a sense of satisfaction. 
I had not had a sewing project like this for sometime.
I may get inspired to try another one again soon. 

This is June and the garden behind me is growing well.
Perhaps the enjoyment of growing food and flowers is also an experience
shared with the women of Congo?

Thanks for the project of Congo cloth and relationship building. Lois
