This traditional Japanese wrapping cloth was used to carry clothing, food, and other goods from the market and its use is currently being promoted all around the world (thanks to an initiative of the Japanese Minister of the Environment).
To jog my own memory as to how to use these cloths I’m posting these videos here. Hopefully you will enjoy them, too.
I am a self-learner. I taught myself to sew and to quilt. And I taught myself how to draw. I am learning how to dye my own fabrics and am dabbling with mixed media. I am a quilt designer and teacher, and design and publish my own line of quilt patterns. With this blog I would like to share the bits and pieces of my life.
