Tapa Cloths

Today I finished my Tapa Cloth, which is where you do designs such as shells or fish or flowers, on a piece of paper, then scrunch the paper up until it is soft and more like a cloth!
Then you dye it. No, no, you don't kill it, you paint dye on it. The other sort of dye.
ANYWAY I finished mine today. You had a choice of Kowhaiwhai panels, which are a type of traditional Maori art and Tapa cloths last week, and I chose the Tapa Cloth. Here is a picture of mine when it was finished.
Like it?
If you want to see a Kowhaiwhai panel, take a look at some other blogs including Hannah and Clara's. They might have theirs on display.
