Such an awesome abstract work!!! And the description is incredible!!! Never knew this! Amazed at the ability of these women!! Must take many hours!!! Done by hand I'm assuming! Can't imagine!! Very labor intensive! I have sewn a little by hand and with a machine. Takes much patience. I'm in awe of their handiwork! I'm sure seeing these women wearing these is an awesome array of artwork on display! Thanks for capturing and taking the time to explain! :)

Lisa, thank you so very much for your nice feedback. I must confess that I very often use descriptions from Wikipedia or other sources. That's because my wife and I are not native English speakers (mostly my wife writes the titles and descriptions, she is better in English than me). Using these sources makes it much easier for us. Hope you don't mind :-) Thank's again for your lovely comments. I appreciate them very much!
