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 Kaffe Fassett shot cotton (first photo). These would add a lovely colour highlight to a boro inspired project.
The original colour inspiration for this bundle was a photo of the Northern Lights viewed from Crail, on the Scottish coast, but somehow it got the nickname 'Peacock Aurora'! Purples, blues 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.
