Buy at the fabric production area [07 Chikugo/Kurume production area] Kurume Kasuri

Tour of fabric production areas. This time, I went to Chikugo and Kurume production areas around Kurume City in southern Fukuoka Prefecture. Kurume is home to Kurume Kasuri, an Important Intangible Cultural Property. This time, we focused on Kurume Kasuri, as it is popular for clothing that goes beyond traditional crafts. The Kurume Kasuri Cooperative Association takes the initiative in offering workshops and weaving and dyeing experiences. This time, we visited Kasuri Kobo's ``Ai no Uta'' Fuku Orimono, Kurume Kasuri, and Kaze Okurimono, a store specializing in Japanese miscellaneous goods.
