Welcome to My Kimono Blog!
This is my first blog post on my first website. I am not a very adventurous person and find it hard to branch into new areas, so I have been avoiding having a website for the longest time. The task was too new and scary. If I look back a few years, I remember it was my daughter that persuaded me to start an Instagram account with all the lovely photographs that I had, that I didn’t use in my books. My Instagram account has enabled me to meet so many wonderful people, both on and offline, and I have learnt just how much love there is for kimono in Japan. I have received many messages from people who have seen it and started their own kimono journey, or have started to take lessons, or have started to wear kimono again. I feel thankful that I have so many followers and have been able to make so many wonderful connections. This makes me truly happy. The various threads of what I do can all be found on this site. This platform has many possibilities, but I will take baby steps figuring out how to use it. Many thanks go to Derek Makishima for the persuasion, time and skills that have gone into this website. Kimono rocks on!
