My mother from Ghana

I wanted the yellowish Dashiki. She did not have a bigger size. Just like my mother always tries to convince her customers, she suggested a couple of other colours. I asked if she had any Kente shirts. The Ashanti fabric fitted perfectly.

I met my mother at the Notting Hill Carnival. Just like my new Kente shirt, my mother is from Ghana.
