She wanted an old cheosam of her mother's taken apart and made into trim for her jacket. I thought the wavy lines in the fabric design would coordinate nicely with the Japanese "mist" sashiko design. Dragonflies, though usually used in Japanese summer wear, are also a favorite.

There is a lot of contact with clientele when I create my original designs. I like to make sure that the work you receive will be treasured piece in your collection.
