Grandma makes more kimonos

Another Kimono for Kyo

Three new Kimonos, my favorite is the dark brown and turquoise one in the middle. Hard to see in the picture, but it also has a little sparkle on the fabric

A pretty Chrysanthemum pattern on a burnt sienna background, perfect for fall

The first one with yellow trim, I also used a velveteen and satin braid trim for the sash

This kimono was made from the fabric of one of Savannah's old blouses. The front had a band with gems glued to it, it came to a point in front, that's what you see here. I cut and sewed it to the back of the kimono

I cut a portion of the band with the gem centered, to sew into the sash for the kimono

There was enough material on the blouse to also sew a kimono for Emma, I used a portion of the band, with the gem centered, to sew on the back of her kimono

Then I used the other band, with the gem centered, to make the sash. The girls love the kimonos and for Savannah it will always remind her of the fun times she wore the blouse.
