I am very much in love with this Indigo Blue, Hand-Dyed by Keiko @Sashi.Co. Kakishibu & this Indigo is my all-time favorite. The solid Indigo blue, as the second photo shows, can be very good on Denim. (Color won’t be washed away when the appropriate procedure is taken – like…

It is my goal to share The the Sashiko via Upcycle Stitches. One of the core activities of Upcycle Stitches is to support the industries that consist of the Sashiko – and the next step is to “raise” the next generation. Well… “Raise” is a quite strong word. I am…

Sashiko Kinchaku – a Japanese style drawstring bag. We are a group of Sashiko artisans after all, both @Sashi.Co and Upcycle Stitches. We pay our bills by offering Sashiko supplies, but we cannot stop crafting. That’s how we define us as Sashiko artisans instead of “Sashiko Dealers”. It is easy…

The video is by @na.na_45 ☆ From my experience, I would say, “hand-crafting” can communicate who the creator really is. The same goes for Sashiko stitching. I would rather teach the basics and then let them find their own stitching than molding the learner to one specific “type”. The basic…

She once took my workshop. She continued Sashiko stitching with us. Today, I admire her Sashiko & attitude to Sashiko. It is simply beautiful – beyond the words. In a conversation with her, I learn a lot. “The ordinary (stitcher) to the ordinary (user). We may call it tradition after…

Another happy news to announce. The Sashiko Kinchaku (drawstring) bag, curated by Upcycle Stitches, stitched by Nana, welcomes its own debut. All hand stitched. Very well made for the usage of many years. I got questions, “What is Sashiko”? Well, there are many words to explain what Sashiko – but…

12月20日の深夜の運針会、一席空きがでました!来週初旬までにご連絡頂ければ、必要材料もお届けできると思います!是非ご検討下さい。詳細はストーリーからも見れるようにしました。一点訂正。便器不足→勉強不足です。パニックになりすぎた(笑) ☆ As you may know, I am not here to judge others. As I have been saying, I welcome any interpretation of Sashiko as long as the Japanese culture (philosophy) is somewhat respected. However… with a LONG time observing many Sashiko pieces, I do have quite a strong preference….

Beautiful Kinchaku (drawstring bag) with hand-stitched Sashiko on Indigo Dyed Cotton Fabric. I am very happy to have them here in the US. ☆ This account “SashiCo” is to share the Sashiko we practice. Keiko and her friends make the Sashiko pieces, and I (Atsushi) introduce them while I enjoy…

After sharing “Atsushi’s Unorganized Project”, Keiko completed the organized and neat Sashiko drawstrings bag. Again, both “unplanned” and “planned” projects are good. There isn’t such a thing as Right or Wrong. Enjoy Sashiko! ★ 淳の投稿(配信)を知ってか知らずか、「新作、どう思う?」と恵子さんから写真が送られてきました。やっぱり、しっかりと形になる刺し子もいいですよね〜(笑)一目刺しの巾着です。Sashi.Coは、大きなものを中心に作っていますが、気軽に手にとって頂けるような小物も試行錯誤してみています。 ★ 2018-10-07 21:36:31 Source

Getting ready for big day tomorrow. Looking at my (Boro-Became & Need Repair) Wallet and Kinchaku Bag. They have been always with me when I do the workshop. ★ Sashiko is a form of simple stitches. However, authentic Boro is the beauty only the time can create by using it…
