This carpet is called a "mu'sal'lah". It is used 5 times a day by muslim people to perform prayer('Sallah') on. This particular mu'sal'lah is all the way from the sacred city of Mecca. It was given to me by my grand mother after she had performed pilgrimage. This particular prayer mat plays a big role in my life as i perform my daily prayer on it 5 times a day, every day. 

I have decided to use this fabric item in my garment piece as it has great significance as to who i am.
