Use this lovely book to reimagine textile souvenirs or highlight unique pieces of fabric. The book includes a wide variety of projects that take textile items (scarves, placemats, bandannas, table runners, etc.) and find a new, more useful purpose for them. Projects are small enough to highlight small, special textile finds in a way that allows you to enjoy them (and get them out of the linen closet!).
Note that the book is written in Japanese, but patterns and schematics are included. Crafters who cannot read Japanese but who have some sewing experience are usually able to interpret the instructions without any trouble, and others can use the projects as inspiration for their own creations.
