Guest - Our quilt trip around the world lands us next in South Africa. In July this year there is a quilt conference being held in Johannesburg called "International Quilt Convention Africa".

Wenche Wolff Hatling stopped into the booth where I was demoing and did a video of me doing the demo (where I didn't open the rotarty cutter.. real life!). She is a designer and shop owner from Norwary.
