what a lot of very interesting pieces you have made here Queenie, such a shame we do not have anything like this in GB
ReplyDeleteI love these-so beuatiful and cute at the same time. I have some bits of silks and kimona-do you ever have a tutorial or pattern for these?
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful and cute at the same time- do you ever do tutorials or patterns for these? I have bits of silks and such from Japan in my stash and would love to make some of these.

Hi MIchelle,
DeleteThe only tutorial I have posted is for the rabbit I made 2013:

Most patterns are from books published in Japanese. I might make a step-by-step post for next year's HINA ornaments, some time in February 2015.
Hi Queenie, the mobile is wonderful and I would love to try to make your rabbit, so I popped over and saved the pattern. I too have some kimono pieces that should work well.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the pattern and today's mobile.
Oh, Maureen, I am pleased to hear you would like to make a Hina rabbit. Good luck and have fun!
