I can hardly wait untill this book will drop into my letter box....and neither can Anne-Sophie.
There are so many elegant patterns in this book, that I don't know how to pick out my favourite. Really!! However, I'm sure that I will get to make lots from this book. For my daughter and for me....and maybe something for my sister.
It is certainly Japanese casual elegance in the way both Anne-Sophie and I adore it. And so many of the designs are suitable to be sewed in linen and flax.
But other kinds of fabric will do as well. Liberty fabric would be very appropiate for the tunics and dresses and of course my beloved Gingham. Or maybe Mælkedrengestriber!
For now I will eagerly await for the book to be sent - all the way from Japan.
Der er nu noget over Japansk design. Alt er så utroligt æstetisk og for min del, tror jeg også, at jeg kunne anvende det hele.
ReplyDeleteGlæder mig til se dine præstationer, kære Ulla ;-)
Den lyder godt nok spændende den bog.
ReplyDeleteGlæder mig også til at se kreationerne - Forstiller mig flotte enkle linier........
Dear Ulla,
ReplyDeleteyou always find special things. I'm looking foreward to see you and your daughter in the new japanese clothes.
Hope the weather is better up at your home - or at least the tent is waterproof.
Kindest regards Nina
Japanske mønstre har et problem, de er lavet til japanere, som er små.... og flade !
ReplyDeleteDet er der, Jeannette Mariae...dét og så franske designs bliver jeg aldrig træt af.
ReplyDeleteEnkeltheden og elegancen er fantastisk, og så kan man jo selv style til eller fra.
Jeg håber ikke at mine præstationer skuffer - forsøges skal det i hvert tilfælde. :))
...........
Ja, de billeder jeg har set fra den på etsy ser meget lovende ud, Gitte.
Der er specielt et par modeller, som jeg lige kan se for mig. Lange, lige linier - vi er helt enige. :))
...........
Dear Nina,
Thank you so much. I'm really happy that you like what I find. :))
The weather is getting better - the rain has stopped for a while and the girls are safe and sound indoors - back home ;))
Happy summer greetings,
Ulla :))
.................
Jeg kan hverken prale af at være lille eller flad, Hanne - men ih, hvor jeg håber at det går alligevel. ;)) Ellers må jeg i gang med at rette til. Det er dejligt at du nævner det - tak for det. :))
Og jeg beder for blændende sol på onsdag! ;)
It looks like great book with wonderful dress. I will wait for your projects from it :)
ReplyDeleteHej Ulla

Jeg glæder mig til at se hvad dine fantastiske kreative evner får ud af disse designs. Må jeg spørge hvor du har købt og eve´ntuelt hvor den kan købes..
Thank you very much, Jurga :) I reallly think that it's a good book, with some beautiful dresses.
ReplyDeleteI hope that I get to make some of them fast...if the book arrives soon ;)

Hej Silas og Sol!
Jeg forventer mig meget af den bog. De japanske bøger jeg har købt tidligere har ikke skuffet.
Jeg har købt denne bog på etsy hos en shop der hedder ichigonopantsu.
Og mange tak for dine flotte ord - de gjorde mig helt stolt. ;)
thanks for your suggestion, ive taken you up on it....see flickr....love your work and meeting you ella x
ReplyDeleteHej Ulla
ReplyDelete1000 tak, jeg håber ikke det gør noget hvis jeg også køber en bog, for den ser bare for lækker ud.
kh Jeannet
Oh, my! That looks like a fantastic book. I would find it hard to be patient for its arrival, too.
ReplyDeleteso... you're into japanese craft books as well ?!
ReplyDeletelast week i went to the japaense bookstore in san Francisco, you should have seen that : meters of bookshelves... all craft books !! i was in heaven !
i heard this one was good.
happy sewing :) !
Thank you so much, ella. I will look forward to see how the embroidery turned out. :)
ReplyDelete............
Gør du bare det, Jeannet - jeg håber, at du vil glæde dig lige så meget som jeg gør. :)
...........
I really think that the book will be used a lot, Katherine - when it arrives ;) Ever day I hope that it's in my mailbox. Silly, impatient me. ;))
..........
Oh, yes, Valerie. I have quite a few. Both for children and grownups.
I love that simpel, elegant style.
I really wish that I could go to that store you mention. So many Japanese books, no wonder that you felt it like heaven. ;))
Did you buy any books?
yep ! but was quite a good girl, since I stayed one hour only (could have spent the day in, but i was with my 10 year old daughter who complained she couldn't read the mangas that weren't translated i French of course !) and bought 3 books only.
ReplyDeleteI'll have them on my blog in August -- 1 is aldult sewing and the 2 other crochet.
hope you have a nice weekend :)
Linen is the fabric, flax is the fiber from which it is made.
