Today, I woke up with a bit of ease in my mind, then I started cleaning the hous

atsushijp, 2022年1月12日

Today, I woke up with a bit of ease in my mind, then I started cleaning the house more carefully than usual while doing laundry. It is good to be mindful. I completed 2 big events (workshops), and another one is 2 weeks away. I always get nervous when teaching, and I still am happy that I get nervous. However, it is also draining and it is good to have a bit of “rest” for my brain.
☆
To be honest, for me, “In-person” workshop is easier. It is because I can “sense” the emotions of participants. Frustration, Disappointment, Excitement, and Confusion. All of them are non-verbal communication that I read & I can offer the solutions for each. Over the Internet, the way to feel “the sense” is very limited. It requires extra attention to feel it, with reading a slight different movement and atmosphere over the camera, yet it is doable. I am not only “teaching in one direction”. I would like to adjust my teaching so that everyone can “adapt” the Sashiko we practice to their ordinary fun.
☆
My brain will be occupied with workshops again soon, until the end of QuiltCon 2022. Meanwhile, I will enjoy the Sashiko Live Streaming on Thursday at 9 pm EST, and I am planning to share about the “Marketing” and “Spirit” in Sashiko – Yes, it is an interesting combination for the topic to discuss. It will be on Youtube. Please find our channel by searching with “Sashiko Story”.

忙しい年末年始中もずっと頭にあったオンラインでの刺し子クラスが完了して、漸く一息つけた水曜日の朝です。久々に丁寧に掃除ができて満足。刺し子を教えるようになって4年。長年やってきた刺し子だからこそ「何を教えていいかわからない」状況から、「学ぶ人によって教え方を調整する」ところまで進化することができました。継続は本当に大切です。続けることでお声がけ頂けることも増えてきて、今年も様々な場所で私達の刺し子をお披露目できる予感がしています。年末年始に販売した福袋、今年は僕が宣伝にチカラをいれられなかったのもあって、まだ数点残っているようです。もう1週間くらい販売を継続し、もう少し福袋の内容物等もご紹介できればと思っています。福袋はその後、似たような商品に生まれ変わります。値段はたぶん上がるけど。柄が印刷された布も、赤い糸も、販売ができるように頑張ります!9柄の布、クッションにしても素敵だよね……と恵子さんと話をしていたら、もう完成形ができてきました。流石……事務的な仕事は全部俺が担ってるだけはあるよね。こういう面白いバランスで今年も親子二人&沢山の友達と一緒に頑張っていけたらと思っています。

I made a silly resolution at the beginning of 2018, that I will only do “Asano-ha Pattern” for 6 months or so. It is June, and I just start enjoying other patterns. This one is called “Kakushippou.” — When I have time, I will make other Japanese traditional patterns. Let…

A group photo with Sashiko artisans in Otsuchi. The bag they hold is made by each artisan. Their works look great, and they improved their Sashiko skills by a lot. I feel happy, and somewhat proud of them. 大槌刺し子の皆さんと。 それぞれ手に持ってらっしゃるのは自分で作られた作品。本当に上達されたなぁと。嬉しい限りです。 2017-10-18 18:30:40 Source

2023年9月22日

Where is your knowledge from? What is the upstream of what you do regularly? Whom do you receive it from? Toward 2023, the strongest message I want to deliver is the acknowledgement toward the upstream. We can learn “anything” from Online Source now via the Internet. 6 years ago, no…
