FREE: Han-Eri & Juban Workshop
Step-up your kimono game and better customize your own kimono coordinations to reflect who you are with this han-eri workshop! This FREE workshop will be hosted during the Ohio Kimono Mini-Matsuri event in June. Han-eri are decorative collars you sew onto the collar of a juban. This decorative collar protects not only the juban and kimono but also can make a really fashionable statement. This is a BEGINNER LEVEL sewing class and is good for all ages and skill levels. This is a hand-sewing project, and will NOT require any fancy equipment.
