While we were in Tokyo, we had the chance to rent a sewing studio for an afternoon. We connected with Chie, a talented local designer who generously lets people rent her studio when she's not using it. It was such a cool experience to work in her space, overlooking the Tokyo skyline.
After an inspiring day at Nippori Fabric Town I was so excited to finally put some of that fabric to use and create a memorable piece to take home with me. Figuring out how to print an A0 pattern in Japan added an extra layer of challenge, but we managed to navigate through it with the help of the trusty translate app. It definitely made the whole process more memorable. I hope you enjoy the video :)
