Japanese fabric kitchen curtain
I am unskilled at sewing, but I've encountered no difficulty working with these cotton fabrics. They are a good weight (not too heavy, not too light) and feed nicely through my 1924 Singer treadle machine. I have completed several simple projects and am pleased with the results. I've attached a photo of my kitchen window curtains. They're super cute, don'cha think? ;-)
by Tracy
this is my little asian girl. the little combination is made from Tiny Ume Blossoms on Red.
i love this fabric - it's so supersoft and nice for little girly clothes. easy to sew and easy to wash and iron.

my little one looks so great in this outfit.

Japanese fabric books
Soxbooks are handmade in Melbourne, Australia using only authentic Japanese fabrics and papers. I have been making books for over 5 years, but only since January this year have I been pursuing retail outlets to put them in. They are currently in 14 shops in Australia which I am very excited about! There are three main formats: concertina, soft bound and hard bound. All come in small, medium and large. Anyone interested in ordering one from me directly are welcome to email me at : soxbooks@yahoo.com.au I would be only too happy to make to order and send them on to you. My fabric list is now in excess of 150 different kinds!! Hope to hear from you soon
