Sashiko & Denim. This isn’t really “traditional” from some Sashiko artisans’ perspective. However, I call it Sashiko because we try to understand, share, and tell the stories of what Sashiko can be for us. Any Colors are fine. Any Patterns are Fine. I just want you to know Stories behind the practice – why “indigo & white” and why “Geometric Patterns” – which you can find the stories on our Youtube, Website & Patreon.

Anyone can do this type of work. However, no matter how “fast” we can stitch, it will take many hours of stitching – it can be both “labor” and “leisure”. I no longer offer commission work after getting so tired of undervaluing our work. I used to enjoy contributing to someone’s work. I just wonder if they would enjoy working at almost half of the federal minimum wage. Again, anyone can do it – and it can be “labor” when I stitch as a Sashiko Artisan, and it can be “leisure” when I stitch for fun. If this type of Sashiko Denim is your destination, please consider taking my “Core & Essence” workshop, either In-Person or Online (both good in a different way)

[Announcement] I scheduled the Thursday Sashiko Live Streaming on 10 pm EST tomorrow. 1 hour later than usual. However, it really depends on the traffic & conditions. I will keep updating on Youtube Channel. (Find our channel by “Sashiko Story”).

スタイルが合う人と一緒に住むと、服に無駄がなくて助かります。アメリカに移住して僕は30キロ近く太り、8割方の服は履けないか、あるいは笑えない感じにパッツンパッツンになるかなのですが、ちょうど妻が当時の僕の服がピッタリあうサイズ感になっています。足の長さが10cm以上違うので、裾を折り曲げるデニムが9分丈みたいになってますが…。

配信でお話ししながら刺し子をしようと思っていたデニムなのですが、久々で楽しすぎて、隙間時間にインスタグラムのライブ配信すらつけずにガンガン刺し子をしておりました。白、赤、黄色、青。自己主張が強いですし、履く人を選ぶものにはなってしまったと思うのですが、これもありかなぁと思っています。「デニムに刺し子するなんて大変でしょ」とお言葉を頂きます。デニムは厚いですし、刺し心地抜群の藍染布と比べると確かに大変ではあるのですが、指抜きにしっかり力を委ねると、手が痛くなったりすることはそんなにありません。何時間でも刺し子は続けられますし、1ヶ月もあれば1本デニムは刺せてしまいます。指ぬきの使い方やデニムへの刺し子のコツ等は運針会を通してお伝えしておりますので、刺し子&デニムに興味のある方は是非運針会への参加のご検討を頂けましたら幸いです。初めてデニムに刺し子をして15年程。まだまだ奥は深そうです。

People who shout for freedom (creativity) accuse someone for not following the rules. I do not consider myself an artist. As I have spent so many days with “Sashiko masters”, I would never consider myself as a Sashiko master. So, the story I share is not the answer. My Sashiko…

I often use “味噌汁 (Miso Soup)” to explain what Sashiko is in Japanese. The ordinary & a character of “No Right and Wrong”.  ☆ Pouring hot water to Miso doesn’t make regular Miso Soup. Often, Miso soup requires the “Dashi (kind of broth)”. A choice of Miso & Dashi makes…

I am on a journey of learning more about Sashiko/Boro, like you are. However, there are 2 statements I can make. 1. Sashiko is NOT the word for Pattern/Design. 2. Boro is NOT the word for specific stitching Technique. When one has a “western” mindset, they may feel, “Atsushi, instead…

    I’ve never understood the concept that handmade should be charged at less than factory work! What the hell is that all about? People want the handmade look but are unwilling to pay for it and also a lot are unwilling to learn how to do it for themselves. So the mass market continues to flourish sadly.
