Yes, I agree the pdf is very helpful. One question, which book are you displaying? The outfits are absolutely adorable.
Thanks for the link!
I'm not sure whether you would have mentioned it before or not, but there's also one here made by Myra of My Little Mochi: http://mylittlemochi.typepad.com/my_little_mochi/2006/03/japanese_patter.html
It's perhaps more for soft toys rather than clothing.
Glad you like it, and it was a pleasant surprise to see the link here.
MERCI for the link.
I have plenty of Japanese sewing (& crochet/decoration) books and no doubt this is going to be very useful !
thank you for this! i just got my first japanese sewing book and this will be a great resource along with your blog!
