Furoshiki (traditional Japanese wrapping with fabric.) I wrapped several small gifts conventionally and packed them into a box before wrapping the whole thing in a square of batik fabric. This is for my daughter who loves origami. (I wonder if she will give me the fabric back - LOL)

Hope Kate enjoys her presents. Perhaps you will get the fabric back when she has created something from it

My bet is that she will return it with "please make a shirt, mum" Merry Christmas to all.

Love the versatility of these fabrics; they serve as gift wrapping, head coverings or even bags for carrying things. Yours is lovely, happy holidays.

I think this is a great idea, especially if the fabric is either reused by the receiver or returned.
