The Japanese Kimono Doll pattern and tutorial will show you how to make a
beautiful, little doll wearing a traditional kimono. My doll's name is
Kumiko ("beautiful child"), and she loves all things pink and floral!
Kumiko is quiet but very friendly, always wearing a sweet smile and
understanding look on her face.
This doll makes for a lovely friendship / cultural / traditional
Japanese heirloom gift, desk accessory, or décor in the home. The
pattern’s base is highly customizable. Changing the colors and color
variation can create a completely different look! Some other ideas to
make this doll your own include embroidering designs on the kimono dress
and sleeves, adding buttons, attaching beads, and even adding new hair
accessories or bows. Don't be afraid to let your creative side loose!
