Olympus fabrics are always very high quality. They take care to re-create traditional fabrics as close as possible to the look and feel of the original artisan made fabric, while still making them colourfast and machine/dry for our modern day uses.
This fabric is lightweight and is suitable for quilting, clothing and home decor project sewing. It hand stitches easily and is also popular for visible mending and boro stitching.
One of the details you can notice in the Takumi series is that they have printed the traditional patterns and motifs on a specially made greyed fabric background which gives the the fabric the more subtle tones of an older style fabric. You may also enjoy the more textured feel of the cloth.
How to order the amount you want:
The fabric is 44" wide. Order in 10" increments. Example: 1 unit will be 44" wide by 10" long, 2 units will be 44" wide by 20" long, 3 units will be 44" wide by 30" long, and so on. Your fabric will be sent in one uncut continuous piece. (1 yard = 36"/1 meter= 39.5")
