This piece is from the Khayamiya (tentmakers) district of old Cairo. For over 1,000 years, the tentmakers of Cairo hand-stitched huge panels (some as large as 10 feet x 20 feet!) with elaborately patterned and colorful arabesque designs that were attached to the interior of tents, serving a dual function of shelter and ornament. By popular demand in recent years, the tentmakers started making smaller pieces and pillowcases.
