“Tata: The Father of a Nation,” a quilt by April Shipp, hangs in the Kentucky Museum on Friday. It is part of an upcoming exhibit showcasing various quilts remembering and celebrating the life of Nelson Mandela. According to Shipp, the word “Tata” means father in Mandela’s Xhosa language, and the quilt is designed to capture the familial love many South Africans have for Mandela.
