Uguisu and camelia motif tsukesage

To byla spontaniczna i dość nonszalancka przymiarka mojego nowego kimona, które kupiłam dobre pół roku temu. Całe lato o nim myslałam, ale ta pora roku nie sprzyja zakładaniu awase, czyli kimona na podszewce.
Zachwycona jestem delikatnością rysunku ptaszków "uguisu" wśród kwitnących kamelii, piekielne zdjęcia nie oddają w ogóle kolorów, na tych zdjęciach tło jest bladoróżowe:( Tylko ostatnie zdjęcie, nieco zbliża się do oryginału.
Ptaszki mają wyhaftowane oczy i dzioby.
To dziwne, bo po raz pierwszy nie jestem w ogóle pewna, czy kimono jest z prawdziwego czy sztucznego jedwabiu. Pięknie się układa, jedynym problemem jest to że jest przeznaczone dla osoby o wiele wyższej ode mnie. Ułożenie ładnego, chludnego ohashiori to sztuka nie lada.

It was a spontaneous and quite nonchalant trying on my new kimono that I bought a good half a year ago. I thought about it all summer, but this time of year is not great time to puting awase, a kimono with a lining.
I am delighted with the delicacy of drawing Uguisu birds among blooming camelia, hellish pictures do reflect real colors not at all, in these pictures the background is pale pink :( Only the last picture is a little closer to the original.
Birds have embroidered eyes and beaks.
It's strange, first time I'm not sure if kimono is a real or artificial silk. But the only problem is that it is designed for people with a lot higher than me. Laying nice, neat ohashiori it great job.

Tsukesage with kaioke motif

These are my trying to do pictures myself with our home camera:) Not too much perfect but most important was to capture my quick idea of colour combination. I`m showing the best results. Same kimono is wonderful embroidery example, the fabric is beauriful rinzu with sayagata motif woven on its surface. Little too big for me :P but it didn`t stop me against buying this beauty.

too much pink....

Finally, finally went through pretty pictures in a kimono, because my husband needed a model to make proof to another proffesional session palm house, I was objekte under some important test session.

Lady in  cashboard certainly  saw many strange people in her window, dozens of pairs of newlyweds, families  etc., but woman in pink kimono probably not ... :)

According to strict  Kitsuke  rules set below  isn`t a flawless, but it requires effort impeccability, and not one pair of sandals zori to support each ensemble.

my kimono sewing project

 .....12 meters of rinzu satin, tens of meters of hand stitches, hundreds of censored words, thousands of minutes at sewing, undo and re-sewing, I do not know how many drops of tears and sweat, and it is  First at the Vistula hand sewn tsukesage kimono :) although some elements require further amendments, I am proud of myself as a peacock :)
