Getting ready for the Sashiko Workshops in NYC over the weekend of 4/21&4/22.
I will bring some good fabric from Japan (Vintage & Non-Vintage) available for purchase to the workshop participants.
Workshop. Always, exciting!! 1週間後に迫った刺し子ワークショップの準備を着々と。ぶっちゃけると前回の片付けも半ばで、片付けと準備を半々にしながら……という横着さ。
久々に日本から布も手に入れて、ガッツリ刺し子を楽しんできます。ワークショップはいつもどきどき。何回やってもいっつも緊張。

Sashiko is not the word for the Japanese mending technique itself. Mending is indeed a great part of Sashiko, but what we often would use for “mending” is just “hand-stitching for mending”, not so much Sashiko. People who use the word Sashiko as the mending technique is twisting the word…
Asanoha (麻の葉) pattern is my favorite. You may realize how much I stitch Sashiko with Asanoha patterns, and you may even wonder why I stitch so much Asanoha – not other patterns. There is a reason behind it as well. ☆ Enjoying a variety of patterns is a great way…
