I bought these fabrics in a textile/homewares-type shop in the country - they are vintage kimonos that have been cut into pieces *gasp*. Beyond quilting and patchworking, the small sample size of these delightful pieces could test the boundaries of your imagination/creativity. There's just not enough of each one! Anyway, I don't think I'm quite at the patchworking stage of my life just yet...
Some questions: if they really are 'vintage', shouldn't they be deemed too precious to cut into small squares? And when does 'vintage' embody value and not just o.l.d.?
As much as it pains me to think that these beautiful handmade garments are being butchered, some of them are quite pretty to look at, aren't they?
