Hi we are coming to essaouira weds and wish to get some sofa covers made any help would be great
Hi Simon,
Thanks for getting in touch. Sadly, the selection of fabrics in Essaouira is not brilliant. As long as you are looking for the kind of covers a Moroccan family would like, then there are a whole bunch of upholstery guys on l’autoroute. This is the long, two-lane road which runs outside the medina from the Afriquia and Total petrol stations (as you enter Essaouira from Marrakech)?to the Asseak Assalam supermarket aunt the other end of town. I don’t know any of them, but it probably pays to shop around.
