This downloadable PDF sewing pattern will let you make some traditional Japanese kimono for your Pear girls! You can make short-sleeved yukata for fesitvals or long-sleeved furisode for more formal occasions.
This pattern is different from other kimono patterns in that it includes a 1-piece dress AND a 2-piece dress pattern/instructions set. Pears are so curvy they are a little hard to dress if you don't know your way around a kimono, so a simplified shirt and skirt version is also included as well as a couple of different obi styles.
Patterns Included: 2 necklines (traditional & more cleavage), short and long sleeves, kimono in shirt and full length, kimono skirt, simple/reversible obi and obi w/ kimono fold and obi bow styles in nagoya and bow shapes
Supplies needed: 1 yard/meter fabric, thread/sewing supplies
Difficulty: Intermediate. Kimono are not hard to sew, but they come together/dress differently from western styles.
