So much to do, so little time! With a full slate of summer events, plans underway for fall, and the big 10th Anniversary of African Accents coming up in 2009 (canustandit!!), the activity is non-stop here at Cultured Expressions!

We're pleased to announce that the CE website has been nominated for its third Black Web Award! Voting has already begun, so show us your support, as many times as you like, through October 5, 2008! And if you love CE, please be sure to pass the link on to your friends, too!

Registration is still open for our special resist dyeing workshop with Ghanaian textile artist, N'ketiah Brakohiapa, taking place at the CE Studio in Rahway, NJ on Saturday, October 11. It's a special event you won't want to miss, and space is limited, so register today!

Finally, our new "CE signature" border print is now available online! If you've taken a class or visited us at a vendor booth, trunk show or other event, chances are you've seen this outstanding bogolan-inspired cotton print from Mali as the border on some of our quilts. We've gotten so many inquiries about the print, we now offer it online by the yard.
