I have quite a nice pattern if you need it~ Good reason to have another sewing session!
Now I must look up more reference pictures! so far I have only seen ones of my top layer~

What I always use to make a kimono is this site here.

Scroll about halfway down and you've got the pattern/sewing instructions. It's got step-by-step pictures as well as instructions and while the pattern isn't perfect (the sleeves, for example) the step-by-step is really good and the pictures give a good indication of what you want to do, how you want to sew it and how much fabric you want.

So during my searches I found another Sakura Kimono I would prefer to do ^_^; Pretty sure this one isn't already being done, if it is then leave me as Tomoyo~
(sorry about this)

DO THE BELL SCARF. DO THE BELL SCARF. You know you want to annoy everyone as you walk.

@Admin- I like the first 3! If that helps at all haha.

but if I'm being non-biased the gradient one and the autumn colours are cool >w<

Its fine I am in no hurry. Take as much time as you want ^^

BUMP

Found this website.
http://www.i-kimono.com/english/popup/size.html

It might help with measurements on certian panels. You just put your waist and height in and it calcuates them for you.

By Cactiberry. 18/09/11, 08:20 am

Hey, I was just wondering, is this still going to be a group? c:

By Pura. 18/09/11, 10:40 am

I assume so? We can just all cosplay stuff whenever we feel like it?

I think we're half thinking of a photoshoot for Wellington people early next year because Flash goes back before Armageddon ):

So, completely forgot about this group. I am still reasonably keen, however school will be my top priority this year (Plus I'll have to see what my budget is).
