Vlog video, 1940's dress inspiration and new kanzashi.

As seen in the vlog below, my daughter Jina helped me out with some product photography for some new kanzashi pieces.

I’m slowly editing the photos as I’ve also been sewing a few experimental things. I’m honing in on some long unused skills to become reacquainted with them again.

If it wasn’t obvious, although the dress turned out well and I succeeded in achieving using some skills. The colors just are not my flavor. Then there’s also the intentional oversizing due to the layout of the fabric. I do plan on altering it, so maybe it might make a trip out of the house this spring.
