Buying Fabric in Ghana

A friend on travbuddy.com tells me "Makola Market has the best selection of fabrics in Accra."

Ntonso, an Ashanti village north of Kumasi is known for Adinkra cloth, and Bonwire in the same vicinity is known for Kente cloth.

When my mom visited Ghana she had several outfits made inexpensively by local seamstresses.

You can also dye your own fabric to take home in a batiking workshop in Cape Coast.
