atsushijp, 2022年9月3日

I have been sharing almost 2,000 posts here and 150+ articles on Patreon, and numbers of Videos on Youtube because I would like to be very careful in introducing What Sashiko can be for us. I know the majority is asking for simple, comfortable, easy-to-understand, and “quick” answers & definitions. However, “the quickness” can be violent by filtering the important elements of the practice. I believe “Sashiko in Japan” exists with no “absolute definition”. Sashiko as “Little Stabs” isn’t the wrong definition, but not enough to describe the whole. Yes, I do have my own definitions & share them here and there. However, I don’t want them to trust my definition & description. I want them to acknowledge our Sashiko, but not believe what I share without doubt unconditionally.
☆
So, how do I share the culture without “absolute definition”? Well, the answer is simple: share the experience. Bring them to the place where we share the same “common sense”: the same culture. Language is a big barrier here, so I try to share as many stories as possible in English. On top of that, we started a “monthly gathering” to offer an “experience” of a Japanese group with interest in Sashiko thanks to the help from @prumstudio. We had the very first gathering last night. I enjoyed it a lot, and I hope it was a fun time to talk about Sashiko & Japanese culture together in English, while inviting Japanese Sashiko practitioners. Thanks to PrumStudio, this is available for anyone with no fees. If you are interested, please follow them & sign-up for the next one (which is probably 10/13). I sincerely hope, while accumulating this gathering, I can share the Sashiko without defining what it is.

英語の配信→英語での刺し子を語る会(Zoom)→日本語の配信っと、沢山刺し子について考え、語り、説明し、思いを紡ぎ、そしてガッツリ刺し子をする24時間になりました。ありがとうございました。月末に運針会と井戸端会もあったので、この週末、私の声を合計24時間くらい聞いてらっしゃったという方もいらっしゃると思います。本当にありがとうございます。この集まりは「英語&刺し子」という二つのキーワードで日本の文化を紹介できたらなぁという集まりです。刺し子に興味があれば誰でも参加頂けますので、@prumstudioさんをフォロー頂けると安心です。言語は英語で、全てを通訳はしませんが、なんとなくの参加で大丈夫なので(笑)個人的には日本の刺し子好きな方と繋がれるのが嬉しかったりします。文字だけだと厳しいこと書いてる時もあるので、実際にお話しできると仲良くなれる確率が上がるんですよねー。

We will have the new imperial era starting 1st of May. Japan has announced that the name “Reiwa – 令和” for this coming era. The each Japanese character has several meanings. “signifying order and harmony” would be the general translation, but I would like to add a bit. Rei:令 as…
