This listing is for one yard of reclaimed vintage Japanese fabric salvaged from a cotton summer kimono, called a yukata.

This fabric is a medium-weight cotton with two layers of patterning:  thin pinstripes behind a series of two little floating circles.  One has a plover and wave pattern and the other is stylized ancient kanji.

Great for piecework, especially when combined with other vintage yukata remnants. Multiple pieces may be available.

When we find vintage (circa 1950s but could be older or newer by two decades) Japanese kimono or haori in less-than-sellable condition, we salvage what we can and offer it to artisans, quilters, crafters, and designers for project work. So the fabric has been previously sewn and though we carefully deconstruct the kimono, previous seam lines, as well as minor blemishes, may need to be worked around or trimmed away.

The inspiring designs, hand work, and the ageless beauty of vintage Japanese textiles make all the extra work so worthwhile. See video below for inspriation on upcycling vintage Japanese textiles.
