Japanese Jacquard Tatami-beri Ribbon, Stiff Trim | 8cm Wide, 10m Length | Lavender Plum

While most decorative trims are flimsy and prone to fraying, this tatami edge tape offers exceptional structural integrity and clean finished edges that hold their shape. This authentic jacquard woven trim, crafted in Kojima, Kurashiki—Japan's renowned textile hub—brings the heritage of traditional tatami mat borders into your modern studio. Whether you're reinforcing bag making accents, creating durable zip pouches, or designing textured book covers, this stiff, versatile craft trim delivers both beauty and durability.

• 8cm wide, 10m length roll; composed of approximately 56% polyethylene, 26% polypropylene, and 18% polyester for optimal weight and structure
• Usable on both sides with perfectly finished woven edges that will not fray; cut ends can be folded, bound with bias tape, or carefully heat-sealed
• Medium-weight stiffness eliminates the need for heavy interfacing in small pouches or structured bag bases
• Do not iron or machine wash; protect from high temperatures, moisture, and UV rays to prevent shrinkage or discoloration
• A collaborative design by FLAT x nunocoto fabric, featured in Cotton Friend Spring 2024, vol. 90

This jacquard woven trim is produced entirely in Japan and available in the sophisticated lavender plum colorway shown.
