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 piece. There are two Peppered Cottons (shot cottons), plus three Moda Ombre wovens, where the width of the stripe varies across the bolt. The shot cottons and stripes  fray to reveal different warp and weft threads, so the raw edges look more interesting. These would add a lovely colour highlight to a boro inspired project. 
梅雨 ‘Tsuyu’ is the rainy season in Japan, and this year is expected to start around mid June in Tokyo,  two week’s earlier than average. While the rain feels refreshing, it is also still quite hot, so everywhere feels humid. Blues, greens and turquoise shades help to give a cooler feeling. 
 
I have many sashiko threads in the same 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.
