Watching Siddi women quilting and the community life surrounding them. I made the trip to Mainali to learn their way of quilting. Since returning home I have made 19 quilts in their manner and am about to return with some of mine to show them.
The Siddis are descendants of Africans from North-East and East Africa who were brought to India as slaves 400 years ago.
Suggest watching full screen.
