Are they selling the actual blankets made in Africa or are they using the designs on textiles produced somewhere else?

@mokluc - That is an interesting find! I wish LW spent some of that money they make from the traditional design based clothing for uplifting the needy from Africa. Thanks for sharing. Upvoted
Nice materials. I guess it is manually made like adire in my place. My people use hand to produce materials like this called Adire. Imagine how much they will do if technology is provided.
