"Usotsuki (Liars)"

One of my kimonos' sleeve length is not standard.  Normally it is 49cm, but this one is only 43cm long.  Since there was no juban exactly maching this size, I could not wear this kimono before. 
When I mentioned this problem to my ex-manager, who was also a kimono lover, she advised me to create a pair of "liars (usotsuki in Japanese)".  Usotsuki is a juban sleeve seperately prepared from the body of juban.  As usotsukis are detachable, I can attach whatever length of usotsukis to one juban body, according to the kimono sleeve length. 
So, I decided to create a pair for my irregular sized kimono. 

It was harder than I imagined to sew them...

Working for 3 whole days, I finally completed them.  Now I can wear my first tsumugi kimono.
