Friday Finish - Japanese Pattern Noren

A noren is a rectangular cloth, split vertically into two or more sections. It is traditionally hung in the doorways of homes, shops, and restaurants in Japan. 






My noren is made using the Japanese Patterns I stitched from this book and fabric from this jelly roll. It is backed with Japanese yukata fabric. I made two panels and connected the two at the top from the brown pattern through the light purple pattern, and split from there down.
