So today I finished Ichito's "jacket"
(hitatare? chihaya? I don't know) thingy.
First off I attached the sleeves to the body and then I just hemmed everything. I left the sleeves open on both sides and the body of the garment is fully open at the sides too.
 |
| Sleeves are on. | |
 |
| Huge sleeves... |
After hemming everything I just had left to do those chest cord decoration thingies... so here's how I made them:
 |
| Draw the shape. |
First off I went to our outside storage and cut off a tiny square of this one leather-ish plum colored fabric. Then I took a reference and drew the shape of those flame/flower/whatever decorations and cut them out.
 |
| Sew them to the ribbons... (notice sewing machine left fugly marks on them -.-) |
 |
| ... and then sew them to the collar of the "jacket". |
And then it was finished. Now I can just tie them whenever wearing it.
Although I could have made those ribbons a bit longer mom pointed out, oh well. |
| Ah, lovely thing~ |
Now I have left to do the obi, "flap" with higanbana design, dark blue kimono, tekkou, bracelet, tattsuke hakama-ish pants, feet wrappings, shoes, eyepatch... err... let's just say everything else. OTL
