Preparing the patterns needed for your alteration
We provide dedicated patterns (PDF) so you can cut fabric to the calculated measurements and sew the pieces together without misalignment.
Print and place them on the fabric—no guessing at complex pattern matching or millimeter-level layout—and proceed with your alteration smoothly.
What's included
-
Additional-fabric patterns: Patterns for accurately cutting portions from the kimono's matching fabric (tomonuno—the same fabric).
-
Alternative-fabric patterns: Patterns for replacement fabric (yardage) to use where the kimono fabric is not enough.
-
Unpicked-fabric patterns: Patterns for reusing the matching fabric without cutting it anew.
Used together (additional-fabric and alternative-fabric patterns), they help you alter cleanly without guessing at pattern matching or dimensions.
