Mounted fabric

I really love old fabrics. I love the stories behind them. I am not an artist so I cannot paint a picture but I mounted a beautiful old fabric on to a frame, and, voila, it has become an instant artwork. These frames are on my bedroom wall. I fell in love with these delicate Shibori(tie-dye) silk kimono fabrics as soon as I saw them. They were very old and some of them still had stitches from its original garment or some had small stains. I feel I own a piece of history...
