Discovering Stories in Striped Japanese Fabric Scraps for Quilting, Mending, and Crafting

Vintage Japanese cotton fabric scraps with indigo and striped patterns, perfect for quilting or mending

There’s something deeply poetic about vintage Japanese fabric scraps.
Faded striped patterns, softened by time, whisper of past lives—of daily work, of seasons passed, of quiet dignity stitched into every thread.

Our 5-piece assortment of vintage striped fabric scraps offers a piece of that history.
Each fragment was once part of a kimono or workwear, worn and cherished. Today, they find new purpose in your hands—ideal for boro, visible mending, quilting, or creative stitching.

In a world of fast fashion and digital speed, these humble textiles offer something grounding: slowness, tactility, and story.
No two pieces are the same, and that’s the beauty.

Let your next project begin with fabric scraps that already have a soul.
