I popped over off of "HappyThings" site after seeing the sweet zippered bag you sent her - completely adorable! I too am having trouble mastering the zipper mistress. I'd love to see a tutorail here if it's possible. Thanks! That’s incredible! I popped over off of “HappyThings” site after seeing the sweet zippered bag you sent her – completely adorable!

Sorry - I have no advice on washing obi. It's nice to hear the story behind the pincushion - nice work. What a fun auction to go to – I know I would really enjoy it.

I have some including a kimono and a couople of obis but I can't cut into them. Just can't. I have been to Japan a few times because my DIL is Japanese and they lived over there for a few years. THe fabrics were just mind boggling. I must go back when I have a few extra thousands of dollars to spend on fabric. Their cottons for kimonos are also to die for. Lucky you with the Japanese fabric.

Do you know what caused the stain? Was it from the sun, or a dye transfer from a wodden box, or what? that'd greatly increase the chances of removing it... what a wonderful fabric find!
