Remember. Fabric carries memories. We may put in our thoughts into fabric by hand Sashiko.

I am in sorrow. My friend may be right. It is probably too late to advocate what Sashiko is. The word “Sashiko” has its own meaning, especially in the marketing and populism. Do I give up? No, I won’t. However, it is okay to be sad, right?

My mother, Keiko, is quite an optimistic person. She cheers me up with saying, “I am nowhere to define Sashiko, nowhere to change anything. However, I can keep creating Sashiko. Let’s share the Sashiko everyone in the world would like to have in their life – a piece they would like to use.” She stitches and pray. I stitch and talk. We involve as many friends as possible. This is Sashi_Co, and you can see who we are throughout what we make. ☆

今日の配信もお休みすることになり申し訳ございませんでした。声を出すと喉に痛みがあるので、大事を取ってお休みさせて頂きました。次回の火曜日で2週間丸々配信をしていないことになります。それだけ配信をしなかったのはいつだったか記憶に無いほどに。
☆
年末に向けて、また様々なご報告がございます。引き続き応援頂けたら嬉しいです。今日の配信でアナウンスするつもりだったのですが、12月20日(金)の夜10時からの3時間の予定で、今年最後の運針会の予定がございます。人数が揃えば……と思っているのですが、もし興味の有る方はご連絡頂ければ幸いです。運針会の詳細についてはプロフィールのリンクから。運針を学んで頂くと、きっと刺し子を違った角度から見て頂けるようになるかなと思います。技術を付け加えるような感覚でご参加頂ければ嬉しいです。

So lovely and even!
お大事に😊
Chin up. Cultures evolve and so is sashiko. But everyone appreciates the beauty in it. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Oh please please don’t give up… I feel joy in simply looking at your sashiko even though I don’t really stitch very much and I’m sure the same is true for many people.
A friend recommended your account recently as I am very interested in learning about Sashiko from an authentic source. Of course it is ok to be sad. I hope you have a good day today.
Please, stay strong, be true to your calling. We all learn from you and respect you.

👏😍💖🇨🇱
I’m trying to learn sashiko. I love this 😎💕
👏👏👏👏
You are absolutely allowed to be sad, and angry, and hurting. And you might not have control over how the entire world uses the word sashiko and the pain of that is real and valid and you deserve to take the time process and heal that. As often and as long as it takes. But you do get to define what sashiko means to you and to all the people you have relationship with. Thank you so much.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
