Default Supplies for mission trip

One of my former 4-H students, now a grown woman with a child of her own, will soon leave for an extended (3 years) mission trip to Uganda. I mentioned community quilts, and several articles I've read about tribal independence, and self sufficiency among the women based upon sewing projects. Now, I can't seem to find any of the articles. Any one remember reading about quilted yurt doors, and village sales of hand sewn articles? How about the logistics of donated sewing machines and fabric? (Darn, didn't think I'd need that information, so didn't flag it.)

Help from minds which are more crisp than mine would be greatly appreciated.
