A Word from the Editor – Yamashita’s Corner


Greetings—this is Yamashita, your newsletter editor.


One of my hobbies is chirimen crafting. Cutting chirimen into squares and folding creates tiny 1 cm petals; depending on the combination each flower looks completely different.

I love mixing Japanese and Western styles, so I kept crafting with various fabrics until my room overflowed with cloth!

Now the stash sleeps in my closet—almost rivaling a kimono collection.

My favorite is a camellia made from denim; its round shape matches casual outfits perfectly.

If you spot someone wearing it in town, that’s surely me.

The only drawback is denim’s stiffness—hard to fold and puff up nicely.

Being thrifty, I recycled old jeans; now scraps pile up. When will this drawer of fabric ever empty…?


Today’s newsletter introduces our “Suisei News” May issue.

■ Suisei News May issue here ↓ (featuring photos I shot!)
