SUGGESTED USES:

We have been using similar 27 -30 inches (68.58cm - 76.2 cm) kimono fabric pieces to make infinity scarves (as gifts), using ornate fabrics like this with a matching silk kimono liner piece; Good for making scarves/accessories; These panels are truly classic traditional Japanese art designs, and, aside from creative, fashion, or craft applications, would be suitable for display or framing.

Surely of interest to our Japanophile designers and textile artists & designers out there.
