Tongan Tapa cloths

Tongan Tapa cloths

Welcome back bloggers. Last week we started Tapa cloths because of Tongan language week. If you dont know what a Tapa cloth is its a very well known a gift that Tongans give to each other. They usually give it for a gift for peoples birthday or they use it to wear it. They wear it with other Tongan cloths as well. First we started in our art books we also had to look up some Tongan Tapa patterns. After we got all the patterns and we knew what we were going to draw. Second we started on a piece of paper square and then we had to draw our patterns on that paper. When you were finish you had to go over the pencil with felt tip. After we dyed there was all sorts of colors. I really enjoyed the Tongan Tapa cloths. Blog you later!!!.
