Tenugui fabrics

When I was up in Napier recently I lucked upon a funny wee shop called Raku that sold all things Japanese.

I got quite excited about a selection of Tenugui they had there, pieces of cotton with various designs on them. These were by no means cheap but once I'd laid eyes on them I had to have one … or two or three.

I bought this fish design because I loved the idea of this in a cool aquatic room. I also thought it would look excellent as a light fitting around a simply circular shade.

I picked up the utensil one at the last minute. The thought of this in the sewing room was a must. Of course, this will be after the sewing room has been redecorated but planning for the future.
