These little bundles of five sixteenths of a metre (25 x 26cm approx.) are perfect for mixing in with other scraps for a traditional boro inspired look. I chose one of the Moda Ombre Wovens, and four Peppered Cottons (shot cottons) for colour and texture. These would add a lovely colour highlight to a boro inspired project.
 
We have a lot of primroses that self seeded in our garden this year, from garden centre fancy coloured primulas - most coming up as pale yellow primroses - so they were transplanted around our oak tree on the verge. Sashiko threads that would go well with this bundle for boro are #24 170m or #227 40m ‘Spring Green’ fine 4-ply Yokota sashiko threads, or #155 ‘moegi’ (spring green) 100m sashiko thread, or, naturally, any of the yellow or cream sashiko threads.
 
This listing is for ONE mini boro bundle, but several are shown in the photos to give you a better view of the fabrics. Peppered Cottons have a slightly shiny, 'calendered' finish fresh from the bolt, which disappears when washed - the fabrics become more matte and the colours seem even more intense.
 
I add more bundles on different themes from time to time. It is easier (and more fun for me!) to make these bundles in one-off batches, rather than trying to repeat the same fabric assortment, so once these are gone, I will not repeat them.
