Kikoi heaven

On my last trip to Kenya at the beginning of the year, my sister stocked up on some more Kikoi's. Like me, she can never seem to collect enough of these large pieces of rectangular woven cotton, and with the variety of colours and patterns the choice is endless. Similar to a sarong they are usually wrapped around the waist like a skirt, but with a whizz on the sewing machine they can be turned into lovely cushions, bags, notebook covers, shorts, dresses....

In this case it seems like Alice has a passion for stripes.
