I wandered into a fabric store in Osaka and there was so much available in that one tiny store that there was no way I could make a decision! Once back in Tokyo I’d planned on a solo jaunt to Nippori Fabric Town, but reconsidered because I suspected my head would explode once faced with the vastness of options.
