So here's what I chose to make from the book - House Zipper Pouch❣ In the book, Minki stitched her daughter's name above the door (as you can see from the front cover of the book), but I skipped that process and instead added a small door knob (a light blue button) to embellish the exterior panel.</div>

今回私が作ったのはこちら↑ おうちのポーチです。本の掲載作品ではポーチのドア上部分に著者Minkiさんのお嬢さんのお名前をフリーモーションステッチされていますが(表紙作品参照)私はその代わりにドアノブ用に水色のボタンを縫い付けてみました。</div>

The book comes with clear step-by-step instructions with lots of beautiful photos and diagrams to follow. It was especially fun to fussy cut the little girl, a dog, and birds from scraps to create windows and to attach them with fusible web!</div>

ポーチ作りで一番楽しかった過程がこちら。 おうちの窓部分に使う女の子、わんちゃん、鳥さんなどを手持ちのハギレ布から切り取ってアイロン両面接着シートで指定の位置に接着しました。その後ミシンでアップリケしました。</div>

Although it wasn't indicated on the book, I decided to add straps to the "roof" of the house. If you decide to add straps to the pouch as I did, I highly recommend that you stitch them <i>before</i> installing the zipper. (I added straps <i>after</i> installing the zipper). </div>

本の作り方では指定されていませんでしたが、今回私はおうちポーチに持ち手を2本付けてみました。今回は急に思い立ってファスナー付けをした後に持ち手を付けたのですが、次回からはファスナー前に持ち手を付けるようにしたいと思います。</div>

Here's my recent handmade item: patchwork <i>gamaguchi </i>wallet or metal frame coin purse I whipped up for a good friend of mine for her birthday. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My girlfriend and I met while working at a same restaurant when we were still teenagers (which is long long time ago as you can imagine!) We had been close since then despite living in the other side of the globe - U.S. and Japan. Now that I moved back to Japan, my girlfriend and I are reunited again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
仲の良い友人へのプレゼントにパッチワークのがまぐち財布つくりました。10代のころのアルバイト先で知り合った友人とは、長年の海外生活中は数年に一度の頻度しか会えませんでしたが私が日本に帰国した今は時々会えるようになりました(^^)</div>

For the pattern of this mini tote, I basically followed my <i>Insulated Bento Lunch Bag</i> pattern from <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Zakka-Handmades-Projects-Organize-Simplify/dp/1589237501?ie=UTF8&keywords=amy%20morinaka&qid=1348474198&ref_=sr_1_1&s=books&sr=1-1" target="_blank">my book</a>, and made minor changes here and there. For example, I installed zipper top instead of drawstring opening and added D-rings on both edges of the tote opening to attach adjustable shoulder strap.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

バッグの型紙と作り方は<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Zakka-Handmades-Projects-Organize-Simplify/dp/1589237501?ie=UTF8&keywords=amy%20morinaka&qid=1348474198&ref_=sr_1_1&s=books&sr=1-1" target="_blank">拙著</a>の「お弁当バッグ」の作り方をアレンジしています。例えば、今回のミニトートは巾着仕立てではなくファスナー開きにしたり、バッグストラップを付けるためにDカンを二つバッグ口の両側に縫い付けるなどしてみました。</div>

Here's more tenugui sewing from previous seasons. These are kids' summer pants I stitched up for my young niece and nephews last summer, mainly using tenugui fabrics (Minnie mouse pants are not made of regular cotton but the rest are made of tenugui).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
他にも過去の作品より。昨年の夏には可愛い姪っ子甥っ子たちに手拭いを使った短パンを数枚作りました。(手前のミニーマウス生地は手ぬぐいではないですが。。。)</div>

For this one, I added crocheted edging to the lightweight tenugui towel and turned it into <a href="http://chickchicksewing.blogspot.jp/2014/07/adding-crocheted-edges-to-my-japanese.html" target="_blank">summer scarf</a>. This tenugui was fairly larger (or longer) in size. I remember that it measured approximately 48" or 120 cm long instead of 30" or 90 cm in length.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
これも過去の手ぬぐいリメイク作品より。薄手で長めの手拭いにかぎ針編みの縁編みを加えて夏のスカーフに仕立てました。<a href="http://chickchicksewing.blogspot.jp/2014/07/adding-crocheted-edges-to-my-japanese.html" target="_blank">→☆</a></div>

BTW I purchased this tenugui scarf in Kyoto few years back. Surprisingly for me, this one is not from 100 yen shop but from a tenugui specialty shop! As you may know, Kyoto is one of the traditional and historical cities in Japan, quite different from the metropolitan Tokyo.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Fabric stamps love! I made these fabric stamps from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Zakka-Handmades-Projects-Organize-Simplify/dp/1589237501/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1348474198&sr=1-1&keywords=amy+morinaka" target="_blank">my book</a>. These are so addicting to make! I highly recommend to make some of these if you've got bunch of fabric scraps like me♥♥♥</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">One day, I was surprised when my hubby asked me to make a simple sleeve for his second smart phone, prior to his business trip. (He almost never ask me to sew anything for him!) Unlike our girls, it was super easy to sew for my hubby because he is not at all picky about fabrics!

In Japan, we are in the midst of "Golden Week" or one of the longest holiday period for workers and students. Trains, airports, amusement parks, shopping malls, and everywhere else gets very crowded during this period in Japan.</div>

日本の皆さまにとってはゴールデンウイークですね。 アメリカで長年暮らしていた頃にはゴールデンウイークとは無縁だったので、日本のこの連休にはまだまだ馴染みが薄い私です。</div>

While many people travel during this period, I've been staying home, doing what I enjoy the most... sewing! Yay! Well I'm still cooking, cleaning, washing, and doing all sorts of daily chores for my family, but still it's nice to have more time to myself.</div>

日本国内の方々は旅行をされている方も多いかもしれませんね。私はというと、家にこもって料理、洗濯、掃除・・・という普段通りの家事をテキトーにやっつけながら(笑)この休暇中はミシンに向かう時間を楽しんでいます♪</div>

To make this pouch/bag, I followed my original pattern: <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/chickchickhandmade?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">Stella Dome Pouch</a>. But this time I replaced the friendship stars with scrappy log cabins.</div>

自作のパターン(<a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/chickchickhandmade?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">五つ星バッグ</a>)をベースにバッグを作りました。五つ星パッチワークの代わりに、明るく元気なログキャビンで。</div>

Besides the "Tomato" store, I like to stop by at another disount fabric store called Zak Zak. The entire fabrics in this store are 1 meter = 100 yen (or 90 cents in U.S. dollars). You know how frugal I am by now right? Ha ha!</div>

繊維街にはたくさんのお店がありますが、トマトさんのほかにも私が必ず覗くのは ZakZak さんという生地の激安店です。店内の生地はすべて1メートル100円なのです。</div>

From the moment I decided to stitch a purse gift for our aunty, cross-body purse was in my mind. I think cross-body is the most practical, safe, and convenient type of purse for the elderly woman, or for any of us! I used ready-made store-bought straps for these purses.</div>

This week I finished filing our taxes (yes it's that time of the year again) and guess what I did as soon as I finished them! I ran to my sewing machine and frantically began sewing like a maniac as always! lol </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
今週は手間取っていた税金関係の仕事を片付けたので気分も軽くやっとゆっくりミシンで作業できました~</div>

You see, sewing has been my best stress reliever (besides drinking...) and I know that it will always be!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
やはり無心でミシンに向かってダダダ---っとソーイングする時間が私にとっては何よりのストレス解消法です。(ミシン以外では飲酒もストレス解消法ですが。ハハハ)</div>

I stitched up two panels of quilt-as-you-go scrappy star panels mainly using Kokka's beautiful Irome fabric collection. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
今回は大好きなコッカさんの Irome (いろめ)シリーズの生地をメインに使ってミシンで気ままにストリップピーシング&ミシンキルティングしてみました。</div>

In most big cities of Japan, outside of major train stations or on crowded streets, you will see people handing out pocket tissues to passers-by. It's nice to receive these promotional items because they're totally free, although they come with advertising inserts inside.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
街頭などで無料でティッシュを配っているのをみかけると私は必ずもらうようにしています!オバサンだから・・・ということもあるのでしょうが(苦笑)、海外生活の長かった私からすると無料のティッシュってとても有難く感じるんですよね~。少なくともアメリカではなかったので・・・。</div>

It's been less than a year since our family moved to Tokyo from U.S., yet we already have a good supply of these free pocket tissues in our household (a lot more than I can show you here!)</div>

So I made these simple pocket tissue covers using pieces of fabrics from my scrap bin. I made four of these, one for every family member, but our girls doesn't seem to like any of the fabrics I used... Well, no surprises as I am used to their pickiness when it comes to fabrics!! (And guess who they got it from?! lol) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
そのままで使うと味気ないのでハギレでポケットティッシュケース作ってみました❣ 家族4人にひとつずつ、のつもりでしたが我が家の娘たちは私が選んだ生地はすべてお気に召さないようです。可愛いのに~(とほほ)。ま、そうくるとは思っていたので想定内でしたが・・・(一体誰に似たのか⁈ 娘たちは生地選びにはうるさいのです)。</div>

It's a recent tradition in Japan for young girls to exchange homemade "friendship chocolates" or Tomo-choco (友チョコ)with their friends at school. It's just like exchanging Halloween candies in the U.S., except without spooky costumes or trick-or-treating! Yum!</div>

Well there hasn't been much sewing going on in my life lately as much as I wanted... but I still managed to make a couple of stuff here and there. It's been a while since I last blogged and I'm so happy to share them with you today!</div>

Using Snoopy pre-quilted fabric, I stitched up coin purse/IC card holder/small pouch for my youngest middle school girl. Now that we live in Tokyo, our girl takes public transportation to go to school everyday and I wanted to make her a handy pouch that holds her Pasmo card (bus pass/train pass), some cash and other necessities such as chapstick all in one place.</div>

最近作ったのがこちら。中学生の次女に通学用のパスケースとお財布兼用の小さなポーチ作りました。少し大きめサイズにしたのでリップクリームなども難なく入ります。荷物が多いのでこんなのがあれば便利かと思いましたがどうかな?</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Christmas is just around the corner and we still haven't set up our tree yet... </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In fact when we moved from California to Japan this spring, we got rid of our tree because we knew that we have no space to set up a big tree in our tiny apartment in Tokyo. So we actually don't have a tree to set it up... (sobs)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">So what to do? I decided to make a quick holiday tree using what we have in abundance in our house... Money? No! Unfortunately! Fabrics? Yes, of course! lol</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> So here's the tutorial if you decide to make a last minute mini Christmas tree for your family and friends. I know it's the craziest time of the year for everyone, so I promise I make it quick and simple! </span></div>

今年もクリスマスまであと1週間。皆さんはもうクリスマスツリーは飾られたことと思います。我が家では今年の春にアメリカから日本に引越しをした際にこれまで使っていた大きなツリーを処分してしまったのでうちには今年は飾るツリーがないんです(くすん)。</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
そこで今回は我が家にたくさんあるもの(←お金!ではなく、布です~。笑)を使って手作りのツリーを作ってみることにしました❣ 作り方は簡単ですのでご自宅にツリーのある方もない方もぜひ作ってみて下さいね。</div>

1. First download tree template <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Sf6Q1O-h1BVE9KUFpXRURja0E/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">here</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
まずはこの型紙を印刷します<a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8Sf6Q1O-h1BVE9KUFpXRURja0E/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">→★</a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Then cut out total of six pieces of tree patterns from your choice of fabrics - you may cut out trees from six different fabrics, or make it simple by using just one fabric. I used three different fabrics and cut out two tree patterns from each fabric (total of six tree patterns).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
型紙をもとにお手持ちの生地から6枚のツリー型を切ります(型紙は縫い代込みです)。すべて同じ生地から6枚カットしても良いですし、または6種類すべて違う生地を使っても楽しいですね。私は3種類の生地からそれぞれ2枚のツリーを切りました(計6枚)。</div>

4. Using 1/4" seam allowances, sew around the entire tree, leaving openings at the bottom. Make small cuts at "V" area as shown.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
0.7cmの縫い代でまわりをぐるりと縫います。このとき、2ケ所縫わずに開けておきます。Vの部分に小さな切り込みを入れます。</div>

5. Turn the tree right side out and push out corners. I like to use chopstick for this step (because we also have lots of chopsticks in our house!) but you may use a crochet hook, knitting needle, or any pointed object. Repeat for all three trees.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
ツリーを表に返して角を出します。このとき、お箸、かぎ針、編み棒などを使うと便利ですね。3つのツリーすべて同様に行います。</div>

What I miss the most about the Thanksgiving in the U.S. is... the food! I especially miss those yummy pumpkin pies from the States♥♥♥</div>

在米年数約30年を経て今年日本に帰国したばかりの私ですが、アメリカの感謝祭で思い浮かべるのはなんといっても定番料理のご馳走の数々。ローストした七面鳥、クランベリーソース、キャラメル味のヤム芋などなど…中でもパンプキンパイが大好きです~</div>

Thinking of Thanksgiving dinner... I stitched up another potholder with "kitchen" print in the middle.</div>

Every once in a while I have a strong urge to put all chores aside, pick up my hook and start crocheting... Ideally I prefer quick projects that can be finished in a couple of hours.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So one night I picked up a crochet hook and a few skein of yarns from my yarn stash (cheap acrylic yarns from local <a href="http://www.yuzawaya.co.jp/" target="_blank">Yuzawaya</a>) and madly began crocheting... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
というわけで今週のある晩、思い立って手持ちのチープなアクリル毛糸を出してきて(<a href="http://www.yuzawaya.co.jp/" target="_blank">ユザワヤ</a>さんで購入したもの)編み編みしてました。</div>

Crocheting (or knitting) is a proven stress reliever and I totally agree. The best part is the sense of accomplishment I get from finishing one tiny project like this one. It's especially therapeutic when you're raising teenagers in your house. lol </div>

編み物は科学的にも実証されたストレス発散法らしいですが私自身、身をもって実感です。こんなに小さな作品をひとつ完成させるだけで達成感が得られるし、気分もうきうきと楽しくなれるんですよね♪ 反抗期のお子さんをもつ親御さんには特にお勧めです(笑)</div>

Hello everyone! Our new life in Japan continues to be crazy but I still managed to make four new patterns, this time using beautiful fabrics from <a href="http://kokka-fabric.com/en/" target="_blank">Kokka</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
These patterns were introduced at recent Quilt Market in Houston. They are not in <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/chickchickhandmade?ref=si_shop" target="_blank">my online shop</a> yet, but two tote patterns will be coming out soon!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
すっかりご無沙汰してしまいました。今春、家族と共に日本に引越しをしてはや半年以上が経ちましたが今なお落ち着かない生活を送っているのはなぜでしょうか….。^^; そんな中、新作(英文)パターン4点出来上がりました~。これらのパターンは先月(2015年10月末)のヒューストン・キルトマーケット(業者向け全米最大の販売展示会)にて発表させていただきました。</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
今回は日本の大手ファブリックメーカーの<a href="http://kokka-fabric.com/" target="_blank">コッカ(株)さん</a>の新作生地を使ってパターン制作させていただきました。</div>

Scrappy stars made with Kokka's latest <i>Irome</i> collection (coming out soon)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Well that's it for today but I will promise to come back soon with more details... Happy stitching!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
上の写真はコッカさんの新作生地 Irome(イロメ) コレクションを使って星のパッチワークを作りました(ミニバッグ用)☆彡</div>

For quite some time, I had this idea of making a house pouch from my original *Children's Pencil Bag* pattern... and I finally had a chance to put it together. As you can see, birds are chirping at front windows, making lots of noises!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
おうち型のポーチ作ってみました。原型は私のオリジナルパターンの *Children's Pencil Bag* (持ち手のついたファスナーポーチ)です。御覧の通り、このおうちポーチ、表玄関ドア両脇の窓には小鳥がぴーちくさえずっています♪ </div>

I've always adored the simple and classic beauty of the Souleiado fabrics from Provence, France, yet I had difficult time finding them in the U.S... But now that I moved to Japan, I feel so lucky to be able to purchase these gorgeous fabrics at our local craft mega store <a href="http://www.yuzawaya.co.jp/" target="_blank">Yuzawaya</a>! </div>

以前から南仏プロヴァンス地方のソレイアード社の生地が好きでしたがなかなかアメリカでは手に入れることができませんでした。でも日本では比較的簡単に手に入るんですね。私もようやく手芸量販店<a href="http://www.yuzawaya.co.jp/" target="_blank">ユザワヤ</a>さんで購入できました♪</div>

So I made a simple tote bag using the Souleiado fabric. After some thoughts, I came up with this tote pattern to add darts at the opening. </div>

今回入手したソレイアードのキルティング地を使ってバッグを作ってみました。あれこれと悩んだ挙句、タックを入れてみましたがどうでしょう。パターンはオリジナルです。</div>

I still want to make some adjustments here and there to improve the design, but I'm pretty much happy with the outcome.<br />
<br />
Well that's it for today... Reporting live from Tokyo, with 97 degrees and 70% humidity today (and it's been like this for a while. Agh! (-_-;)<br />
<br />
出来上がってみると改善したい点がいくつかありますがとりあえずはこんな感じで使い心地を確認したいと思います。<br />
<br />
以上、連日真夏日が続く東京よりお伝えしました!って、今日も最高気温は36C(湿度70%)ですっかりバテバテです~(汗)。<br />
