These little bundles of six sixteenths of a metre (25 x 26cm approx.) are perfect for mixing in with other scraps for a traditional boro inspired look. Fabrics are two checks from Bonnie and Camille’s ’Merry Little Christmas’ for Moda (too nice to keep just for Christmas projects IMHO!), Emerald and White Sugar from StudioE’s Peppered Cotton' range, Khaki from the Kaffe Fassett Collective’s Shot Cottons for Free Spirit, plus 2700B cream stripes shima Momen from Olympus.
 
I love seeing snowdrops as the first sign of spring, so I chose these fabrics so you could give a spring accent to your latest boro project. Threads that would go well with this 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 white 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 may not repeat them.
