A simple placemat caught my eye as we sat down to lunch in a restaurant outside of Kyoto. I liked its texture and the softly worn colors. So I took bits from another placemat and added them to the original, creating a feeling of a bamboo forest and/or chopsticks, both totally appropriate.
I'm thinking that it might also make a pretty pillow . . .
