"Bolts of Fabric & Fun" returns to the Honpa Hongwanji Social Hall, 1727 Pali Highway, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday.

The fundraiser for TEMARI, Center for Asian and Pacific Arts, is for textile addicts who enjoy collecting fabrics, hoarding remnants and stockpiling all things related to sewing, weaving, dyeing, beading and crafting.

Up for grabs will be bolts of yardage, bundles of remnants, hanks of yarn and mounds of kimono, obi, saki-ori and sashiko. There will also be sewing notions, vintage textiles, rubber stamps, tribal cloth and more.

Admission is free. Early entry starts at 8 a.m. for TEMARI members.

A series of Textile Talk Stories begins at 10 a.m.:

» Sara Oka, textile manager at Honolulu Museum of Art, offers highlights from the current exhibition "Remaining Remnants," illustrating ways cheap textiles and old rags preserve memories and make up the fabric of our lives. The exhibition continues through July 13.

» "Ayachuco Weaving": World traveler Tom Sheeran imports the handicrafts of Peru, focusing on natural-dye weavings from Ayacucho that reflect ancient Inca and Wari designs. He will share his knowledge of contemporary Andean textiles.

» "Boro": Collector Linda Ryan regularly visits Japan to collect the utilitarian rags, or folk textiles produced by rural, impoverished people in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Hand-loomed and dyed cotton or hemp were continually patched and stitched together to prolong use of a fabric or garment. The mix of labor associated with traditional Japanese weaving, dyeing and stitching combined with years of wear resulted in pieces now viewed as contemporary art.
