Paisley dress

I spent this afternoon sewing this summer dress.

A bit too girly. But I love this.

Pink and Paisley

nobody@vox.com(lilythelily) — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 10:56:24 +0900

OK, these are my latest works. It seems I've been into pink and paisley lately.

The long skirt was made of the fabric which I have tons of tons of tons of memories with. One of my best friends gave this traditional batik-like fabric to me when I left Indonesia after several years' stay. Almost 4 and half years have passed since then, and I finally made up my mind to actually "utilize" this fabric instead of just storing in my closet. And here comes this simple long skirt. I DO love it!

For father's day

I made this home-wear for upcoming father's day. This outfit is called "JINBEI" in Japanese. Just like "YUKATA (thinner version of KIMONO)," this is sort of a traditional relaxing summer wear in Japan.

I spent half a day to finish this wear while watching (or listening, i should say) DVD of "3rd rock from the sun." The weird contrast of the "SO-AMERICAN" knockabout comedy and this "SO-JAPANESE" clothing I was sewing made me giggle somehow.

Bell sleeve dress

Bellsleeve dress

I never had a "bell-sleeve" type clothing in my wardrobe so far. When I was looking through the sewing magazine yesterday, the pattern of this dress caught my attention and made me want to give it a try.

And here you go. The bell-sleeve is pretty much more adorable than I expected. I'm delighted to add this dress to my wardrobe!

Earth color tunic dress

Last night, I made this tunic dress out of linen fabric. Although I'm not so sure if the natural color like this suits me or not, the result is pretty satisfiable for me. I'll be wearing this tunic dress next Wednesday when I work at the local hospital as a volunteer worker. Oh yeah, have I told you girls that I started to work as a volunteer worker there besides my regular work? Anyway, next Wednesday will be my 4th time working there, and is going to be marked with this tunic dress! :)
