By popular demand, there will soon be a new board created, which will attempt to deal with the wide-range of decorative motifs used in Japanese design vis a vis the kimono. Related threads will be moved there to consolidate related material.
Initially an alphabetical listing by the Japanese term is contemplated (somewhat like the "Glossary"). Suggestions on how to organize it will be appreciated.
This board is intended to serve a general function and will not be confined to motifs used on kimono alone.

Further thoughts __
Both an alphabetical listing and topical groupings would be useful.
Within the group listings, individual entries from the alphabetical listing could be relisted by type and gender (although there is bound to be some crossover).
The groupings would have English names but the actual listings would be by Japanese term. This is because, although a motif may be easy to categorize, at times there may be no English equivalent for the actual term.
