Made of fail?
The shibori sampler is hanging in the shower. I won't know whether it worked or not until it is dry enough to pull out the threads, remove the tape and plugs. I am not encouraged by the fact that one piece of tape fell off on the trip from the kitchen to the bathroom.
Frustrating? YES. Tying knots for kanoko was an exercise all on its own, especially since I'd try to do it the way it is in the book and end up pulling the previous knots out.... I can only wait and see if the method I worked out produces the desired result.
In the meantime, working backwards, I have put together the bibliography/webography and about two double spaced pages so far on the research paper. (I have two books I can't cite simply because they are in Japanese and one is a museum catalogue with no ISBN number and the other is a museum publication with an ISBN number that I was unable to trace by searching on the internet. The good news is that there's a significant amount of digitized art on the internet that I CAN provide citations for. And no, I'm still not telling what it's about yet.

EDIT: When is a 14 page paper "less than 10 pages"? When it includes a two page bibliography and a five page appendix of illustrations. Time to put it away for awhile. I'll proof it tomorrow evening. Food would be good about now.....

Because sometimes a picture IS worth a thousand words.
Japanese language sources D and E contain larger, clearer and more extensive images. Having them to cite for this project is not essential, simply would be nice to have, as I do have overlapping information in other places.

They have the different methods of citation, and you plug in the information, and they 'spit out' the correct citation.
Hope this helps!
I tried, but don't know how much help it is

#3 - couldn't get much of this one, I've seen the kanji before, but I just can't find it online in Jim Breen's for some reason, despite knowing the radicals and stroke order. Sorry.

Re: I tried, but don't know how much help it is
Interesting to see that the catalogue was from the Tokugawa as well - there must have been a special exhibition.
Thanks!
Re: I tried, but don't know how much help it is
Ah, quick google search says emaki contain both pictures and text as opposed to just text. Is that the correct understanding?
As for the Exhibition, it appears it was in '67, from October to November, from the dates on the catalog. How lucky to have one in your collection! I imagine they'd be rather rare and hard to find.
Re: I tried, but don't know how much help it is
Yep.
I am blessed with some nearby used bookstores that absolutely rock - and I've been able to build a very respectable personal library over the past five years as a result.
