This popular design concept by Kazue Nakajima for Quilts 1989 is so much fun to stitch!
You will receive a printed cut fabric piece measuring 40 x 52 cm which features 100 figures for you to dress and embellish! Like a fashion colouring book!
The idea of the design is that it can be stitched freestyle with your own favourite stitches. Create your own fabulous fashions using stitch, applique and embellishment - the choice is yours! Fabric paint, coloured pencils and pens can be used to add different skin tones and background colours.
Each figure is about 5.5cm high. Stitch the whole cloth into a fashion extravaganza and frame it or chop it up to make smaller projects such as patches, jewellery, pouches, book marks etc....
Threads not included. All packaging is in Japanese but basic diagrams for stitches are included. There aren't really any instructions as you can stitch it how you wish!
Available in various colours and 2 designs. The original is a linear design and comes in two different types of packaging (the cloth design is the same) - choose from modern or historical inspiration pictures on the packet.
The black clothes version has some clothing coloured in and also features some cats and a dog.

Tweed Bundle - Custom Made For You
I’ve bought all issues bar one of Tauko (sportswear wasn’t my bag) and can find at least two patterns I’d like to try from each edition. From Tauko No17, I like Sukaria and Dia and the piece on pin tucks by Raphaëlle Bonamy was extremely helpful so shall try this technique. I’m always delighted with the service from Beyond Measure and am very happy to order from this brilliant business in the North.
Daruma Yokota Sashiko Thread Fine colours are beautiful and the thread lovely to work with. Good price and delivery. Really pleased with my purchase.
I love this book- and I’ve already made 2 projects. It’s a self care book- a feel good book and I love that Ethos. The instructions are well written too, so easy to follow. I’ve used fabric from my stash for the Boxy Pouch and the basket. I use them to keep my HRT and supplements in- sticking to the theme of menopause and self care . And I found a beautiful silk scarf on Vinted for £3 so I’ll use that for the eye mask, so that’s my next project. And I’m excited to make the cover up, I have some gorgeous fabric just waiting for it. Thank you to Kay and Jenny for writing a book I didn’t know I needed.
Update: I didn’t realise that the cushion is loose so you can embroider on it, then you permanently attach both pieces. I must have missed those instructions, & I don’t have them anymore. I do like that I have a pin cushion close by so I can quickly & easily change out my embroidery needles. Thank you for letting me know that I can embroider the cushion then permanently fit it to the wooden piece.
