David and Sue Richardson have been in touch with information about an exciting Indonesian textile cruise which they have compiled and will be leading in May 2014.
Quote:
Indonesian Textile CruiseAsian textile enthusiasts with a love of adventure and Indonesian ikat may be interested in joining a small group of like-minded people to sail around the Lesser Sunda Islands in Eastern Indonesia from May 8 to May 19, 2014, visiting local village dyers and weavers. The tour will be led by British researchers David and Sue Richardson who have a special passion for Indonesian textiles and have travelled to almost every part of the archipelago during the past twenty-five years.
A short PDF describing the cruise can be downloaded at
