This month was Japanese-themed at work, so I decided to make myself a kimono. Store-bought patterns turned out to be useless, so I scoured the internet and consulted with a good friend to develop my own pattern. And it turned out great!! My kimono is the red one, complete with obi belt and bow; the other kimono pictured is for my boss. Now that I know the pattern pieces, I feel like I could make 100! (BTW- If anyone really wants them I can probably hunt down the reference materials I used...)
