Kimoyes item: 26264 - Sample bolts were a pre-curser to fabric sample books in Japan.

Sample bolts were a pre-curser to fabric sample books in Japan. They were produced by fabric manufacturers for shop keepers and kimono makers to show their customers to make fabric selection an easier process. This vintage sample bolt is made of a very fine silk. Each of the designs, measuring 11 x 18 inches, is a dyed abstract design. The bolt is 198 inches in length. This bolt has many patchwork and quilting opportunities, would be lovely to display and would also be great for home/fashion projects.
