Hello. It probably can be done but I’m not sure it would be a pleasing finish. Think about painting something like burlap and the knobby texture. This texture would be more difficult to get the paint to fully completely applied in a pleasing manner. I would have second thoughts about doing this project.
Hi Jo, hope this helps you get your furniture painted.

I would not I don't like the feeling of painted fabric
Sure it would work. Just be sure you use a fabric paint or add textile medium to a regular paint. To keep fabric's softness, you might want to sand between coats. Good luck!
I would not sand knobby fabric, as the knobs would be abraded.
I would spray it with vinyl car seat dye, from an auto parts store, which comes in about 8 different colors. Check with several auto parts stores, as their inventory will vary greatly.
Yes you will need to use a fluffy filler to cover all the spots
Usually you will want to paint fabric that is smooth.
