This listing is for a pre-cut bolt of kimono fabric that was intended to be made into a haori jacket. We know this because of the collar piece design - the unpatterned (non-shibori) half of the longest piece would be folded inside the collar.

This bolt of silk and a total of 9 yards but already pre-cut into the pieces meant for a haori jacket. Beautiful rusty-orange silk with plenty of puckered kanoko shibori and a floral/geometric tone-on-tone jacquard in the silk weave that is most visible in the plain half of the collar piece. See the video below for more about the shibori technique.

See photos to confirm that the pieces were cut into the sleeve, collar, gusset and bodice pieces and then basted along a length of organza silk to create a single panel length. You don't have to make a haori from it - those pieces can make beautiful accents on their own.

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