1 - Kofu-Tsumugi, Yarn dyed fabric cloth that is 8 inches x 39.5 inches (20 cm x 100 cm) in size. This cloth has 6 pre-printed sashiko designs. Each design is about 4.75 x 6.5 inches (12 x 16.5 cm) in size. Photos of each of these patterns can be seen in pictures 2-7. The designs are printed on Olympus Kofu-Tsumugi indigo hued cotton. Kofu-Tsumugi is a yarn dyed fabric. These fabrics are created from yarn that is dyed BEFORE weaving it into fabric. Due to this, the fabric has a wonderful variegation and depth of color. The warp threads of this fabric are a blue color and the weft threads are a black color. This gives the fabric a deep indigo hue. The fabric has some slubbing (bumps) which gives it a wonderful texture. It is of a light to medium weight and has a slightly stiff drape. The designs gradually wear away when the fabric is washed.
The last photo shows the color of the cotton with the printed sashiko designs most accurately. Crayola brand crayons are shown in the photo for a color comparison and are not included in the listing.
1 - fabric cloth that is about 45 inches long x 8 inches wide (114.3 cm long x 20 cm wide). This cloth can be seen in the 8th photo. It features a printed pattern of off-white kasuri ikat type designs over an indigo blue color. The fabric is made by Olympus and is the Wagara "Panel design" 2000-4B fabric in navy blue. These patterns are permanent and will not wear off when washed.
Olympus Japan created the fabrics in this kit to be used as patches for clothing but it would also be beautiful for use in smaller quilting, home accessory or sewing projects. It would also make a beautiful komebukuro (rice pouch)
All items in this kit are created in Japan by Olympus.

This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third party services you access through Etsy.
Information I Collect:
To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information if you contact me directly.
Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It:
I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:
as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support; when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list;
if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:
Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Google Cloud is Privacy Shield certified.

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:

You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
