Pattern Categories + Eras

Moon Rabbit- Fantasy/Cosplay

Patterns for fantasy adventures including Renaissance Faires, cottagecore teas, or cosplay

Butterfly- Vintage Inspired

Patterns inspired by vintage clothing from the 1920s - 1990s

Many of these patterns start with a vintage inspiration garment and frequently incorporate vintage sewing techniques

Crane- Joseon Modern

Patterns with Korean flair, including contemporary, Hallyu Wave-friendly designs, modern hanbok, and historical hanbok patterns

The Joseon Modern pattern line allows me to share my passion for hanbok (Korean traditional clothing), which is a special part of my heritage.

JMD firmly believes that hanbok is for everyone as long as it’s respectfully worn!

Peony- Historically Inspired

Patterns inspired by historical or antique clothing prior to 1920, including:

-The Renaissance

Future planned historical eras include:

-The Victorian Era

-The Edwardian Era

Pattern Combinations

Many JMD patterns are designed with interchangeable pieces in mind, such as the sleeves, bodice, and skirts. The JMD Interchangeable Pattern Combinations Spreadsheet (linked to Google Sheets) shows which patterns can be combined with each other to create even more style options! Currently, JMD’s interchangeable pattern line for wovens is the Plum Blossom Line.

JMD also offers the following non-interchangeable pattern lines:

-Orchid: No Zipper Closures

-Chrysanthemum: Bias Cut

The names for JMD’s current pattern lines draw from sagunja, or the Four Gentlemen [flowers], which held artistic and historical significance in Joseon Korea.
