I buy my woven cotton strips from these gentlemen once a week at the market. The strips are then dyed, painted and turned into bedspreads during the rest of the week. All the fourposters have been provided for, but there are so many other bits needed: curtains, cushions etc.
I think I am going to call the rooms after the different tribes of Mali, by the way... Peul, Bozo, Dogon, Saurai etc. Are there enough tribes? There need to be 11. Will do some research....
