There is a lot of wonderful cotton, often used to wrap presents. I got quite a lot while there. Each area also usually does its own panel to commemorate the area. We covered a lot of the country so I cannot point to a specific shop but Kyoto has wonderful shopping areas.
I found this wonderful site to help you:

After reading it, I just have to return to Kyoto without a group (or husband) so I can visit all of these stores at my own speed.
