Furoshiki


Patchwork furoshiki

I have a few pieces of silk and cotton that are large enough for a furoshiki (about a yard square or bigger) but not enough so I thought I'd make some. I found a great tutorial at mairuru for making a patchwork one by hand. Mai does beautiful handwork - she stitches about 400 yards a month. Wow!
This is my first one.

I need to make it a little bigger. I really like the way it's turning out. It reminds me of things my Grandmother made. Now back to work...
