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 four Peppered Cottons (shot cottons - separate photos), plus a lilac Moda Woven. These would add a lovely colour highlight to a boro inspired project.
Although this bundle started out as a floral inspiration, Glyn says they remind him of the colours of the first handmade pair of boots he owned many years ago, and now long gone! They must have looked amazing. Purples and greens make great colour combinations, and I have many sashiko threads in these colours which would be ideal for a boro inspired project - you can search sashiko thread by colour as well as type/brand.
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.
