Cotton Furoshiki – The Patchwork, Mixed Motifs in Multicolour

A cloth made of squares, each square holding a different print — batik, floral, geometric — set side by side.

Orange, magenta, cobalt, turquoise, burgundy, yellow, green and cream all appear at once, but the patchwork logic gives the eye somewhere to rest in every direction. No single colour dominates; the composition reads as a small archive of prints rather than a unified pattern. The cotton reproduces the joinery of patchwork without the seams — printed, not sewn — which keeps the cloth flat and supple in the hand.

A furoshiki belongs to the everyday — a cloth to wrap a gift, to fold across a low table, or to knot through a pair of wooden patchins and carry as a bag. The 50 × 50 cm makes a small day bag; the 70 × 70 cm, a larger tote. We hem each cloth by hand at the atelier.
