For more translation of Japanese sewing terms you may like to look to Jennifer's Moving Hands blog or to Korallin's posts on the blog Label Free.
Construction methods for garments are fairly universal, so I also find my favourite English patterns give the helpful instruction needed to whip up those favourite Japanese designs with more confidence.
Wow, just the type of blog I am looking for. Do you know anything about the Furoshiki? I love the way they use these for everything. Bags, wraps, scarves. I just don't know what the measurements are for a small one to use as a bag.
This blog has been created out of a desire to have a central source for all things relating to Japanese craft. It has details on where to find crafts and craft resources in Japan - for those of us lucky enough to travel there.
We feature links to blogs and sites that offer great information too.
If you see something of interest, let us know. We'll link to it or write about it.
