Initial idea from Sina from Rheinstetten:
6 small uni-colour hand towels (approximately 29 cm x 45cm) with Kitenge border, Kitenge loop for hanging and a small (approx. 4×4 cm) symbol sown onto both sides – also from Kitenge material. Symbols should be different for each towel and could be star, moon, circle, triangle, cloud, tree – I am open for suggestions. Colours of the towels could be 2x blue, 2x green, 2x orange. The Kitenge material should be colourful but no purple or pink.

I would recommend using readymade towels for this project since the terry cloth available in the market is not heavy enough for this kind of technique. Ready made handmade towels are approximately 40cm x 60cm so for each color, we can use one, cut it in half and create a pair. Finished towel size will be approximately 30cm x 40 Cm

I think it is a good idea to use one larger towel for each colour and cut it into two halves. Please go ahead with that.
I would like to increase the number to 10 hand towels. Can you please forward a quotation for this increased number?

Sina

Ok we might repeat 2 or 3 symbols since the towels are 10. No hearts right?
Sorry the picture failed to upload. We use matching color threads to the towel for the back so the outline will be seen but it will be a tidy outline.
