Reviews
"It is no secret that I am obsessed with Japanese sewing books. One of my new favorites is I Am Cute Dresses by Sato Watanabe. I have one of Sato's skirt pattern books in Japanese, and I'm a big fan of her design style, so I was thrilled about this new English translated book of her dress designs." - Tricia Waddell, Editor, STITCH magazine "I LOVE Japanese style-and especially Japanese sewing books. So it's no suprise that I've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of I Am Cute Dresses , an English translation of 25 dress patterns by Sato Watanabe. I grabbed a copy as soon as they were available, and I can honestly say that I want to make every single thing in this book!" - Stefanie Berganini, Managing Editor, STITCH magazine "I am happy that Japanese clothing designer Sato Watanabe's book I Am Cute Dresses is now available in English. The 25 dresses in this book are indeed cute - with sweet names such as I Am Hello Halter, I Am Jumper for Joy, and I Am Shift into Tunic. They are all styled to be filmy, loose, romantic and drapey dresses with simple construction and a few interesting details - perfect for summer cottons and light weight linens. The dresses are simple to make but not boringly so - practice your skills with the various techniques offered: make peak-a-boo or puff sleeves, stand-up or mandarin collar, shirred pleats on the sleeves or pintucks on the neckline, an asymmetrical tunic or a Kimono cut shift dress. The dresses are designed to be one-size-fits-all - which we know is never true, but with a little measuring you may be able to adjust the patterns to fit your body. I am just a little bit addicted to this book and will be making a dress a bit later today!" - Whipup.net "Love it! I had already purchased the Japanese version and while the detailed diagrams make using the book do-able, I admit I longed for an English translation." - Ordinary is Boring "The 25 dresses in this book are indeed cute...simple to make but not boringly, so practice your skills with the various techniques offered: make peak-a-boo or puff sleeves, stand-up or mandarin collar, shirred pleats on the sleeves or pintucks on the neckline, an asymmetrical tunic or a Kimono cut shift dress.

  • A deceptively simple yet wonderfully varied book of patterns

    I have been browsing these lovely sewing books in Japanese waiting for one to be translated. The book contains deceptively simple dress patterns that can be made up in simple to luxurious fabrics, made plain or embellished, for a wardrobe of clothing. The only thing I am unsure of is pattern drafting, upscaling the pattern measurements to create the pattern pieces, but I think it will be an adventure and an addition to my sewing skills. I am impressed with the care, detail and clarity of instructions. The photography is a little stilted, I would prefer front and back views, but most of the patterns need little in the way of intricate fastenings. If you enjoy new adventures in sewing and appreciate the diversity of what appears simple, but can be infinitely embellished, I would highly ...

  • I love it!

    Can't wait to start sewing!
