I am thoroughly seduced by antique Japanese boro textiles. A humble cloth, mended, stitched, patched and mended again, down through the generations, they are such a source of inspiration for me. I made this small piece using my French linens, but also scraps of an old Japanese kimono.

ReplyDeleteFrom your last post, I feel your pain. I'm not a tech person. I keep saying I will make my blog better, make business cards, learn photo shop....but I never seem to get up the steam to tackle those projects. But when I do, there will be drinking, heavy drinking!

love the tiny stitches and the wabi sabi feeling of the piece. Loving your new profile pic and the lovely new banner.
