These pillows are made using authentic indigo dyed cotton traditionally worn as wraps by women of the Mossi peoples of Burkina Faso.  Narrow strips of handwoven cotton are whipstitched together into a whole cloth, then dip dyed several times in natural indigo dye.  Each piece is over 25 years old and the indigo color has aged gracefully and the cloth has a deliciously soft feel.  Because the cloth is hand woven and dyed, each pillow is uniquely one of a kind.
