I have been stitching Sashiko on denim for about 15 years now. Some say it is so much work to do – because of the amount of stitching and the thickness of denim. Yes, it is pretty intense labor when I come to think of it, but it isn’t something extraordinary. I believe anyone can do so & there are quite many who enjoy the same so casually.

I wouldn’t say this is a weekend project. However, it isn’t a one year project either. Probably a month… if I can focus on stitching – and if I do not have to worry about making my ends meet & house chores… then probably a week to 10 days may be enough. The key here is “the Form” of how to enjoy Sashiko – not many people are teaching in English, but once they get the Form properly, it is just a matter of finding time & a TV-Series last long for 100 hours or so (as I & many others stitch while watching TV or listening to something).

Once again, anyone can do this type of Denim. I have said it so many times to so many people, and after 8 years of teaching, I can say this with confidence because so many have proven my words. They start it with very humbleness, then find out it wasn’t something “crazy”. I stopped “Commission Work” because I want them to make it by themselves. Sashiko is already in the process of adding stories, and I am here to teach “how to stitch on the Denim”.

Please consider my Online Class [Core & Essence], or 3-Day/5-Days in person workshop. For the longer In-person Workshop, we actually have hours to stitch on the denim together. I believe this one time investment is worthwhile because you are learning a Life-Long technique & wisdom. Please consider learning Sashiko from an actual Sashiko Practitioner from Japan!

デニムへの刺し子を始めて、もう15年以上の月日が経ちました。早いものです。デニム一本全体に刺し子を散りばめるとなると、「とんでもない作業量」だと思われることも多いのですが、実際はそんなことはなかったり。もちろん、全て手作業での刺し子なので、ある程度の時間はかかります。でも、一年とかはかからないし（平行で進行してない限り）、集中したら1ヶ月もかからないと思っています。誰でもできます。ただ、できるようになるコツがあって、そんな「型」を「刺し子の運針会」として教えています。興味のある方は是非、@SashikoStory の運針会の案内を一読下さいませ。
