Fabric Description: This is lightweight silk for use in making a woman's everyday kimono; Background color is light-blue throughout with printed classic designs of smaller white cherry blossoms(.25inch/6.35mm) that are arranged mostly laterally, resembling clouds; other designs are of Japanese maple leaves, chrysanthemums, and roses; the largest flowers are 1.5 inches/38.1mm at longest dimension, so otherwise this has a komon (smaller figures) appearance; print on one side, colors used: pink, tan, & whites; nice drape, smooth but no sheen.

Recommended for making scarf/accessories.
