Japanese retro kimono "Meisen" clutch bag

Just made this clutch bag using my favourite Meisen silk fabric.

The fabric is delicate, so I have used the fabric stabilizer to make it stronger.


I love the shape of this bag from the side.


And I love how the bag opens wide like this.

But as overly cautious person, I like to keep my purse in a safer place, like inside this zipper compartment.

It is quite roomy, and it is so easy to open and close the zipper as it is sewn onto the hard frame.


I've added this wider pocket to fit a smart phone.
Very handy!

Round zipper purse bag with Japanese retro kimono

Just made this round zipper purse bag.
Just love this kimono fabric.
It's Meisen antique silk kimono, and I have used a fabric stabilizer to make it strong.

I've hand stitched this half circle handle.

The purse has a zipper coin pocket, and 12 card pockets inside.

Another liberty iphone case

Iphone case with the liberty patchwork is so popular, that I received another order.

This is for iphone 6S plus.

I order in the silicone case as I get the order, so it takes about 5-7 days to make, since the case is shipped from eastern state.

Japanese modern sewing box

This is the sewing box I made for an order.
It is longer than the usual size and is 25cm in length.



This lovely red Meisen antique silk kimono fabric is all gone!

I am currently working on the Iphone 6S plus case using the liberty patchwork.
I'm waiting for the silicone case to arrive.

In the mean time, I'm working on 3 ordered sewing boxes all 25cm length one.

And I just found my item mentioned in the Creema tweet!
Creema is the Japanese handcrafter market place site, and all my stocks are currently on their site.

Anti theft casual bag

I have made this "anti theft" casual bag.
I made this design long time ago, and I have been using it myself.
The bag is so useful and I just can't use another bag, but
it is such a simple and ordinary design that I don't get so excited when making it,
and so I haven't been making this design for so long.

Anyway, I've made a new one of design, with a leaft sashiko and purple patchwork.

I've used the beautiful leaf print for the back of the flap.
When you open the flap, you find it divided into two separate compartments.
One a zipper compartment, and another is the open space with 3 small pockets.

I've added this side pockets which hides from view with this extended handle.

It fits most smart phones.

The back side is very simple, with this zipper opening.

This zipper is sewn on facing up so it is very smooth to open.

You enter your purse here,

and it is stored automatically inside this zipper compartment.
This will make it easy for you to take your purse out from your side,
but gives you double protection from others.

Iphone6 plus wallet case

Just made this iphone 6 plus case on order.
This customer loves my wallet case with the liberty patchwork,
and this is her 3rd one.

I love the liberty fabric as well, but the fabric is just so delicate,
that it wears out quite fast especially when used on something you use frequently, like this phone wallet.

But, if you love the liberty fabric as much as this customer,
then you just got to have it!
