Among the works featuring dyeing or weaving, in addition to the varieties of kesa (Buddhist stole) designated national treasures, many of the other works are also connected to Buddhism in some way, like the Shishu Shakyanyorai seppo-zu (embroidery illustrating Sakyamuni Preaching) held by the Nara National Museum and the Tsuzureori Taima Mandala-zu (a type of embroidered mandala) of Taima-dera Temple.
染織は袈裟類のほか奈良国立博物館の刺繍釈迦如来説法図、当麻寺の綴織当麻曼荼羅図など、やはり仏教関連のものが多い。
