Cotton Cloth: Labé indigo-dyed cloth is famous across West Africa for its quality and the variety of designs. Local cloth-dyers use white cotton damask cloth from Europe or China and tie or sew the cloth into a wide variety of patterns. These cloth panels are the traditional size produced in Guinea, where the women cut the original 30-yard length of cloth into 15 to 18 panels. Most of our panels are of the 1 yard 30" length; all are 130 cm (just over 4 feet) wide.

One panel will make a shirt, and two panels are enough for almost any dress. Ask about two or three panel sets, or see our cotton damask cloth lengths (item no. P0201).
