Following the previous post – about my sincere advice. The Tread MATTERs. Over time, the Japanese developed the thread for Sashiko purpose. It isn’t sold in major craft stores. It may be slightly more expensive than the other thread. However, if there is a crystal of wisdom, why don’t we use it? In history, the Japanese didn’t have a choice. Now, we have choice in which thread we use. I hope you would give a try, especially since you would spend a lot of time with Sashiko. Our Sashiko thread is available internationally @Upcyclestitches. The thread matters and there are reasons we call it Sashiko thread – (The detailed article is on our web & be mindful what to get because some dealers just name them “Sashiko Thread” without the crystal of wisdom I talked about).

日本国内と海外の刺し子。昨日に引き続き少し不思議な話。日本で刺し子をする方は、「刺し子糸」を多く使っているように思います。逆に海外だと、「糸は何でも良い」という人が多い気がします。「刺し子の原点は貧困の中にあるのだから、新しく糸を買う必要が無いのが正解だ」と。決して間違っているとは思わないのですが、とても勿体ないなぁと思うのです。というのも、刺し子専用に作られた刺し子糸は、それを使うだけで結果が全く違ってきます。また糸そのものが持つ目的も違うので、長い間使うことを前提にする刺し子においても、全く違うものになります。まだまだ情報発信が足りてないなぁと思うのです。動画を作り、ブログを書いて、情報発信しても「知ってもらう」ことが大切で、もっと言えば、「腑に落ちる」ところまで一緒に行けるのが伝え手の能力なんだろうなと。頑張ります。

Ikigai, Umami, Kotatsu, Kakeibo… There are so many Japanese words “translated (transformed, interpreted, or sometimes even twisted)” into the English Community. Sashiko and Boro aren’t as popular as the others, but they are already establishing their own meaning – unfortunately & sadly. Wabi-Sabi, Zen, Mottainai… these are popular words often…

Sometimes, Sashiko is misrepresented as “Slow-Stitching”. It is true that Sashiko encourages us to slow down in modern extremely busy days as we use both hands & spend hours of time. However, it doesn’t mean that one needs to stitch slowly. In fact, many Sashiko Artisans have quite skillful hands…

One of my big challenges in this crisis (paradigm shift period) is to lower my standard. I am a typical perfectionist, and I simply cannot compromise. Does it sound like what I am saying here? Yes, the message on SNS is toward myself as well. I am in the process…
