I've managed to over stock on this lovely rust stripe cotton, and I need to clear some shelf space for new fabrics arriving soon. So I'm selling some of it at a special price of 20% off the normal retail price, by the metre. Grab a bargain while you can!
Shima Momen is a beautiful woven striped fabric from Olympus Thread Mfg. Co., excellent for sashiko (incorporate the stripe into your design), patchwork, bag making and other projects. Woven with symmetrical pattern of thick and thin stripes, with a striped coloured warp and a mustard yellow weft, it coordinates easily with many fabrics - perfect with my preprinted sashiko panels.The weave is loose enough to easily stitch sashiko with fine or medium sashiko threads. Ideal for wearables, boro style patchwork, cushion borders, or sashing, borders and bindings for quilts - anywhere you want a top quality stripe.

Zigzag or overlock the edges before stitching sashiko, as this fabric will fray more than regular patchwork cottons.
