Top (L-R) Animal Print Obi Belt; Gray Satin Obi Belt with Buttons Detail; Aqua & Lilac Obi Belt
Obi is literally a "sash" for traditional Japanese dresses worn for Martial Arts and as part of Kimono outfits.
Back when I was a little girl, I used to hand sew clothes for my barbie doll. I never had much luck learning how to use granny's sewing machine so I settled for hand sewing. I've been eying obi belts that I see on shops. I thought the pattern is somewhat simple and can be hand sewn so I tried making one. My first was actually the Aqua & Lilac design. Obi belts add spice to your usual outfit. May it be from a simple tee or a dress.
