bookmark_borderMoon Rabbit Kosode

I finished this kosode back in February, but for some reason I never posted about it here. When we were vacationing to visit family at the end of last year, I found a friendly local fabric store that stocked a bunch of cute cotton prints and other attractive fabrics. They had some nice octopus print cotton, but I decided to get this sweet little moon bunny print.

The design of this kosode is not very period, and the fabric is completely modern, but sometimes I just want something fun to wear, and not everything has to be a formal project. One difference from period design that you may notice is the double-length sleeves. I did make an effort to do the overlaps according to the currently accepted pattern, but you’d have to know what you are looking for to even notice that.
