Kimono Jack DK 3. meeting

Well... I did it, went out alone in kimono, and it was ok.
I met a small group og Japanese tourist on the way, they found it very funny to come to Copehagen and se a Dane in kimono, funny in a nice way : )


Here is what I put on for the day, not my bedst kitsuke, got a little too stuffed, but I had to leave so no time for a second try. I like the contemporary touch of it.

Small things takes time

So tomorrow is the third Kimono Jack Denmark meeting, and I was going to "remake" a kimono into my size, but time seem to slip though my fingers, and it is still not sewn yet.

This seem to happen often, tooo often.

I have so many plans, but time seem to have a different schedule than me : )
or maybe I just not realistic.


Well, here is a fabric I have bought for an obi, hopefully made in near future ; D

Some time ago I  won this boxed of mixed komono, very cheap, and I have been curious about the quality of the content since.
For a few days ago the box arrived, and it was way better than expected.

13 obi makura, 3 biagata, 8 obi-ita 1 kantan haneri, 6 eri-shin, 6 tabi`s, 9 Ko-rin
9 datejime velcro type, 20 datejime sash type, some silk datejime and a lot synthetic ones, 41 koshi himo, 3 koshi himo elastic ones, 3 Shingata obi makura, 4 obidome kanagu.
There was a lot of different stuff besides this, damm I feel so lucky.

If I have written names of the parts above wrong, please correct me.
