This cotton fabric with dragon icons that I've bought from "fabric tales" some years ago. Now that I have time, I made a yukata for my husband and my cat. My cat used to hate wearing clothings, but he has no resistance with this one.

I thought you would like to see the jacket my sister made for me from the fabric you sold me.  I have worn it once and got lots of compliments.  I just love it - it really looks wonderful.  I am going to wear it again several times and really enjoy it.
I have my eye on another fabric, so I will probably be ordering again!

Japanese fabric books
Soxbooks are handmade in Melbourne, Australia using only authentic Japanese fabrics and papers. I have been making books for over 5 years, but only since January this year have I been pursuing retail outlets to put them in. They are currently in 14 shops in Australia which I am very excited about! There are three main formats: concertina, soft bound and hard bound. All come in small, medium and large. Anyone interested in ordering one from me directly are welcome to email me at : soxbooks@yahoo.com.au I would be only too happy to make to order and send them on to you. My fabric list is now in excess of 150 different kinds!! Hope to hear from you soon
