There is a little fabric shop near Tokyo, Japan called Miss Matatabi. The shop specializes in modern Japanese fabrics and trims. If you have a minute, follow the link to the shop. Or just take a look at these picks. I'm enjoying reading the text in the fabric above. I was curious about the "jewelry casket." The basket fabric below has a little French text. What is it about fabrics that you can read that makes them so enticing?
The ad for the fabric above says these little animals are goats. They look more like lambs to me.
Haha, cute clcothesline image below!
Take a look at the little spoons in the selvage below. Or maybe they're flowers. I'd like to see more of the selvages in this collection.

"What is it about fabrics that you can read that makes them so enticing?"
I don't know, but I LOVE THEM!
My guess about the word "casket" is that it refers to jewelry box. Sometimes the translations back and forth between Japanese and English turn out to be rather amusing and confusing.

I was wondering about the "jewelry coffin." The bag clothing below has a little France textual content.
