I would guess that this apron would be long for her but if you read the instructions I posted at the first of the tutorial you will see what the general measurements of the apron are and can adjust them to fit anyone. I would add 10 inches to a middle measurement for ease. For legnth just measure from the shoulder down as far as you want and allow 2 inches for ease and seam allowances. Same on the sleeves. Hope that helps.Lucyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240634433916196989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33253042.post-9144732508825547462008-11-29T03:20:00.000-06:002008-11-29T03:20:00.000-06:00I was wondering what size are you for the dimensio...I was wondering what size are you for the dimensions you have given for the pattern. I want to make one for my mother who is about 5' and weighs about 160 pounds (round around the middle).

This is so if a Japanese lady happens to be cooking in a kimono, her sleeve will be out of the way and not get dirty.
