Niger - Djerma

62 x 145" (1.57 x 3.68 m) We sell this textile the way we bought it in the market in Niamey, Niger. It is composed of long hand-woven bands, tacked together side by side but not fully sewn into a single textile. In Niger, some prefer to sewn the bands together by hand, others by machine. Others prefer to make larger or smaller pieces. So the weavers sell them in such a way that the buyer can do what he wants with it.
