Frilly bolero, hand-sewn.

I used two different fabrics, not because I wanted but it’s more like I had to because I made it from left over fabrics. Each of them was not enough big to make the bolero.

I also used this kimono fabric to face the back side.

Face maskes made out from partly damaged japanese traditional Yukata(kimono for summer), hand-sewn.

From these Yukatas

To these face masks


I love sewing but for some reason I was not very keen on making face masks when they are tons of patterns online right now.
I’m now in the middle of 2 week self-isolation because I visited UK (that’s the rule in Japan).
I can’t go out if it’s not necessary, I decided to do a major housecleaning and found some scrap of clothes, and thought, okay maybe it’s a time to make my own face maskes.

I’ve tried some of the patterns but they didn’t look okay on my face (let’s forget that I don’t have a pretty face). After many attempts, I think I custom-made my own face mask.

◇used this pattern as a base from this site
