Folake Khadija Afolabi

Embroidery artist in Warri

  • 🇳🇬 Warri, Delta, Nigeria
  • Little Warri Art Collective
  • 1986 to 2007
  • English, Yoruba
I got into embroidery as a hobby and somewhere along the way it became the thing I do every day. I also teach a weekly class at Little Warri Art Collective, which keeps me honest. If you remember me, I'd love to hear from you.
