I recently bought myself a new treasure. I saw this beautiful cloth for sale on fab and took a chance purchasing it. I’m no expert on Bogolanfini or African mud cloth, but I love the pattern, texture, & history of this textile. When I purchased it I thought it would be more like a broad cloth, or quilt fabric. This is a heavy durable weave perfect for a nice big pillow, or small upholstery job.

I should have bought more. Next time it’s listed I will.
