    Description

    Vintage handwoven cotton and dyed African indigo fabric, made in Burkina Faso by a tribe/peoples related to the Dogon in Mali. Textiles are dyed with the resist, stitch dyeing technique and each piece of indigo is unique. This one is a rare star (flag?) stitched  pattern, 48” x 60”, 5 wider strips of medium-heavier weight weave.
    Excellent condition with the exception of seam repairs in the center, and one patch. No other major holes or damage that I can see; ends hand hemmed. Piece has been washed and used, so is clean and will not bleed.
    I was lucky to have “first choice” of several large containers of indigos, as they arrived directly from Africa, and have many that I will be selling. I picked ones that were in the best condition, and/or the most unique, but there are almost always a few flaws, which I will note in my listings and photographs.
