Zokin & Things Japanese..........

While twirling around my studio........trying to order and being inspired by every turn........I ran across




this.....


























Which I found at the fabulous Textile Museum of Canada when I lived in Toronto a few years back...


And it was all I could do


...........to not undo......








....the stitching..... to see what was inside...........




And thinking of things Japanese.....reminded me.......












of these things.......




 I brought back from this place.........

  1. I found myself here after looking up "Japanese dust cloths" and then "zokin" ... realizing this is not my first visit, having read your tale of renovating your wonderful "brown box" ... and being a recent first-time visitor to New Mexico, I drank it all in
    So, I've added you to my Kindred Spirits links and will look forward to future missives.
    Thank you for being here.

    1. Thank you for visiting (both New Mexico, and here!)……the 'little brown box' project has me on my knees at times….thus the lack of recent posts. Your comment is an inspiration for me to keep posting.
