After a week of (im)patient waiting I could open the plastic bags with the pounded fabric. This is what they look like. I used different textile paints (Trapsuutjies, Setacolor opaque and Probrite) diluted with water. Because paints were used instead of dyes the hand of the fabric changed a little bit. Each piece of fabric is the size of a fq.
As this is my 100 posting I am giving one of these fabrics away. All you have to do to make a chance of winning one of them is to leave a comment behind the coming week. Next Sunday I will pick a name.

I echo Susan as the texture is wonderful. have you tried using just setacolor paint and scrunching them up as in sunprinting.
Very beautiful texture and colour. Congratulations.

Love the pounded fabric. This is different from what I've seen before. I thought it was going to be pounded flowers, and was pleasantly surprised. Thanks so much for showing these fabrics. Diane www.dianeme.wordpress.com
