Mudcloth Styles For Ladies - Mudcloth was first created in Mali, a north African country in the Sahara Desert region during the 12th century. The name “Mudcloth” was gotten from the Mali ethnic language Bambara, where it is called “Bogolanfini”, which translates to earth or mud (bogo) with (lan) fini (cloth). That is also why some people refer to mudcloths as Bogolan. The mudcloth fabric is a traditional fabric of the Malian people. The African mudcloth is dyed with fermented mud and plant dyes and can be processed between four days and a week, depending on climate conditions, humidity, and rainfall in the region where it is produced The original colour of the patterned mudcloth is yellowish-beige natural colour. Mudcloths are traditionally weaved by men and in addition to the dyes and mud used on the cloth, thin strips of plain fabric may be weaved into squares and then stitched together in the fabric. Actually, the cotton Bogolan cloth is woven on narrow looms to create long strips of cotton fabric that are approximately six inches wide. These fabrics are then stitched together to create wrapper-sized cloths which can reach up to a yard by five feet There is a lot of cultural significance of the Mud cloth throughout Africa.
