Earlier this year, I made myself a half-kimono top with leftover scraps and upon seeing it, my little sister wanted one of her own. I finally got around to making it! Hopefully she doesn’t have a growth spurt out of nowhere and no longer be able to wear it…

The japanese club, along with chinese language and culture club, hosted an event last Saturday called A Night in Tokyo. I figured this would be the perfect time to make a kimono-style blouse. I’ve seen several that I’ve wanted to make and planned on how I would make them, only to realize that my remnant fabrics are, well, just that. Remnants. I didn’t have enough fabric to make an entire shirt. Luckily, I stumbled across a half-kimono shirt and figured I’d give it a whirl.
I used scrap fabric from a bed sheet to make a mock-up to see if the remnant fabric would be enough to make this top. I forgot to take pics of this process since I was just sewing on a whim, but I took the remnant I wanted to use and cut out the same size using the bed sheet. I ended up cutting out extra strips for the bottom portion to make it tie in the back.
