Sword Pillow

[Jwrussell]

Before I pull the trigger on the one I'm looking at (polyester?), is there any suggestions on sources for a sword pillow and other supplies? I can find a number of places offering mekugi-nuki, for instance, but not sword pillows.

I made my own. Some fake silk like cloth, sewed into a 3" tube, turned inside out to hide seam. Tied off one end with thread, stuffed with cotton from drug store, tied off other end.

Nice sword pillow. Easy to do.

Hmmm...I suppose I can remember wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy back to my home-ec class and those sewing skills, lol. Might be worth a try.

I made my own based on the Meiji era ones, using Obi material.

That's like what I made, only solid red and without the fancy tassels.
