Mud Cloth!

2009-10-26T09:03:00.000-07:00

I have several pieces of Mud Cloth for sale. Mud Cloth is made in West Africa on a back pack loom and is hand woven and then hand dyed by burying it in the ground. You can read more about it at http://www.adire.clara.net/bogolanintroduction.htm

All the pieces that I have have been washed once. The mordant used on mudcloth was extremely strong smelling so I washed them. They have been in the closet since and are now looking for a new home.

Check back tomorrow. I will be posting more stuff for sale on What is Maggie Selling today?!
