New Releases

New Releases for Japanese Sewing Books ad Magazines October 2016

October 29, 2016


The annual slowdown for new Japanese sewing books releases has begun, as we see more crochet+knitting books hit the shelves instead of sewing books. Nevertheless, there will always be new books to buy. Many of them are released for the Autumn/Winter seasons, just in time for those of you who are lucky enough to enjoy 4 seasons. As usual, I will be including the titles, and ISBN/ASIN numbers to make it easy for you to search or request them from your local Japanese bookstore. You can also choose to buy them by clicking the links n my blog post. These are affiliate links to CDJapan, my usual source for Japanese sewing books! Happy shopping!

I just ordered this from cdjapan. I see a pattern here. Everytime I write a new releases post I always end up checking out (literally!) some sewing books. I will post a review of this book if it’s good!

 The second part of the title mentions low back? But it’s not all low back dresses. But in the preview of the contents it doesn’t look like all low back pieces, so I’m not sure what it means in the title. There are tops, bottoms, dresses and outerwear garments in this book.

Ladies wear straight line sewing without patterns.

The last magazine reminds us that Christmas is coming soon! Busy times ahead for all of us. I will be working on a couple of free pattern releases in the coming weeks because I need to get the up on the blog before the mad sewing begins. I have holiday sewing, Chinese new year sewing, and back to school sewing all scheduled for the next two months. I may not be posting as many book reviews for now but do follow me on Instagram or Facebook where I post my 1 minute book flip-through videos.You will get to see my new book purchases there much faster since it takes a longer time to write up a proper review.

    I love these monthly updates! Last week I purchased “Easy Handmade Kids Clothes” from Kinokuniya bookstore in Seattle, Washington, USA. I didn’t know that is what it is called, thanks for the translation 🙂

    背が低めな人のための大人服 – I think the book is for shorter people as the dress will gives the impression that wearer is taller due to the cutting. : )
    love your new books review and always enjoy your clean and sweet sewing for your kids. Keep up the posting. : )

    As usual, I look forward to your updates, is it possible to post some reviews or pics of the new books? online so far it’s quite hard to find the images for the new books.. and am so enjoying your flip through videos, and I got some books haha.
