Make your own Japanese Clothes
by Customer A1ZYIZ9LMRJOI at January 12th, 2008
This is a seriously cool book! The illustrations are fairly clear and the drawings of human bodies are chuckle worthy. It has a lot of information on authentic design and techniques, I can't imagine anyone using all the handstitching the author describes but it is still interesting. This is probably not for a novice at sewing, but with some experience all the instuctions are clear enough. I wish that he had covered the long hakama and the suikan, as well as more on tieing the fancy obi knots but we can't have everything. Overall a book I would recommend to others.
