In Nigeria, a special cloth is made by painting designs with paint that resists the indigo dye that is later used to color it. The cloth is named for combination of designs painted on it.
Some cloths even tell a story.
This design is filled with all kinds of birds. For efficiency, you may wish to cut the muslin into 15 inch squares to avoid wasting yardage. You can make larger pieces if you wish. Tape the muslin to a table so that it stays flat for coloring. With yellow crayon, draw all over the fabric large birds similar to those shown.
