Ankara and Patchwork Purse

These bright and cheery purses made of patchwork Ankara fabrics make any outing feel sunny.  Featuring straps 10" long and a box bottom to allow for lots of goodies inside, an interior and an exterior pocket. Bag body measures 19"x13"x6"

Made of patchwork fabrics, re-stitched Ankara wax print pieces from Ghana are reclaimed from tailoring. The colors are bright, the patterns are diverse, the pieces are all different shapes and sizes. They represent all of us. As we restitch them, we create a metaphor for the ways that we can imagine healing our separations, our inequalities, our judgements. We can come together, different than we were before, made whole by connecting. Made in Ghana.

The patchwork products feel quintessential to our core mission, and using them feels joyful. We have a lovely selection of them in the store and are imagining new and interesting useful and joyful products from patchwork fabrics. We hope you love them.
