  Hi Yoshimi! Thanks for your comment on my grey Burda dress! Just to let you know, I have been loving all of the beautiful garments you’ve been posting lately. That blue top and that pale jacket are gorgeous! Happy sewing and look forward to seeing more of your stuff.

  YOU ARE MY HERO! I was going to spend a fortune on lace fingerless gloves for a halloween costume and a quick search on here and I found your pattern for fingerless gloves. THANK YOU! You’ve saved me so much moolah. I appreciate you putting that on here for free.

  Hi Yoshimi,
  I saw older project- the JJ blouse in long sleeves. May I ask you how you made the long sleeve pattern? I really love your creation and I would like to make the JJ blouse in long sleeves. But I don’t know how to draft patterns from scratch.
  Did you use the short sleeve pattern and alter the pattern some how?
  It also seems that you got rid of the ruffle on the sleeve’s shoulder part. How were you be able to do this? Would you be able to share this pattern(just the long sleeve part)?
  Or would you be kind enough to explain the steps to do this?
  I would greatly appreciate any assistance you’d be willing to share. You can either email me at jkchoi24@gmail.com or post on my wall.
  I am sorry to ask for such a favor..it’s just that I REALLY want to make the long sleeve version.
  Thanks so much!

    Hello giffengood,

    Thanks for your message! I am delighted to hear that you like my long sleeved JJ. What I did for it was looking for the pattern piece for a sleeve from just a common shirt. I didn’t draft the pattern, as long as I remember… At that time, I had 3 sets of patterns for normal shirts. I am sorry to say but I don’t remember which sleeve I used for the JJ. I don’t think it’s OK to share the pattern that is commercial either, anyway. I think it’s the easiest way for you to find a normal shirt (e.g. Emily from BurdaStyle, note that Emily’s sleeve is very long and looks unique, but the armhole looks quite simple.) and measure the length of both an armhole on bodice and one on sleeve. If the length of the one on sleeve was slightly (let’s say, 0~4/5 inch) longer than the one on bodice, it seems OK for me to attach them together, with putting the ease concentrating to the upper half of the shoulder. If you don’t think the armhole on the JJ bodice is longer than your sleeve pattern’s, you might need to look for another pattern for your sleeve. I hope it helps! Good luck with your JJ and happy sewing! -yoshimi

    I need a correction!

    The sentence “If you don’t think the armhole on the JJ bodice is longer than your sleeve pattern’s, you might need to look for another pattern for your sleeve.” is wrong! Of course, it should be “If you think the armhole on the JJ bodice is longer than your sleeve pattern’s, you might need to look for another pattern for your sleeve.”

  Nope, I have not found parasol (or umbrella) frame kits in the US and my Japanese is limited to origami directions like valley or mountain fold. I may just purchase a really ugly umbrella just so I can recover it. The parasols you made look really nice and I love the fabric choice. Have fun and keep sewing!

  Thanks for the link, I think I´m going to search the internet for a european distributor. Were the parasols difficult to make?

  Hi, I am new to the site…and I see u have done the Kasia Skirt pattern, I have been trying 2 find out how 2 get it for a school project. I am new 2 the site and I don’t know what’s what yet. I have found out how 2 get the directions to make this pattern but not the actual pattern.. On the directions its says things about printing….so I am little confused……
  It is probably dead obvious and I look like an idiot but…….Any help would be great…………….
