Our Sashiko Story to Your Sashiko Journey

As much as I need to learn how to turn up the volume of my voice, I do not reall

atsushijp, 2023年7月26日

As much as I need to learn how to turn up the volume of my voice, I do not really think of myself as an “Authority” of Sashiko. I know many people consider me as a “Master”, “Artist”, and “Authority”, the idea of these do not sit naturally with me as the principle of Sashiko exists in the ordinary. There is no Authority in one’s ordinary when we think of the Culture as the Median of the ordinary. In the same context, I do not consider myself as “Authentic”, “Genuine”, “Ultimate”, “True”… because I don’t know what these words represent. However, I know what is NOT “authentic” – when one claims to be the Sashiko artist/artisan/teacher, they need to be stitching. [The one who likes Sashiko itself] and [The one who likes themselves who is doing Sashiko (or what Sashiko brings to them like money)]. In a big trend, unfortunately, these 2 kinds of people will be mixed in the same pot… and it is quite difficult to distinguish as they both say they like Sashiko. When it comes to “Teaching”, there is an easy way to distinguish them – their stitching itself will explain.
☆
Therefore, I broadcast my stitching, unedited & unmodified, on Thursday on Youtube. For that, I share that I am the one who likes Sashiko itself. It is on Thursday night at 9 pm EST. Please come to see my stitching if you want to know what Sashiko actually is – Sashiko is more than technique for accurate stitches, Decorative Mending, and more I talk about here.

今週の配信で忘れないように、暫定でも目安が付き次第すぐにご案内を。日本時間、8月26日の土曜日、午前9時から4時間程の予定で「刺し子運針会」を開催できたらと思っています。Zoom越しの講習ですが、これまでに沢山の方にご参加頂いていて、ご満足のお声も頂いています。オンラインでの講習で不安なこともあるかと思いますが、できる限りお手伝い致しますので、私達が行う刺し子の運針に興味がある方はご参加のご検討を頂ければ幸いです。
☆
「講習会」ですが、何かを一緒に作りましょうというワークショップではありません。お話だけをする場所でもありません。どうやって刺し子作品を作るかというお話もほとんどしません(笑)。運針会は「刺し子の運針をお伝えする会」で、4時間の間に運針に慣れて頂くことを目的として練習をしてもらう会です。イメージとしては自転車の乗り方を学ぶ機会みたいなもので、試行錯誤を繰り返す皆様のお手伝いを私がさせて頂くという感じです。
☆
こうやって文章にしてしまうと堅苦しいし、4時間も運針の練習を…と構えてしまわれるかもしれませんが、実際は「4時間なんてあっという間。楽しかった!」というお声ばかりです。4時間があっという間という所に刺し子の運針の真髄があると思っているので、目的を達成できている会なのかなと。ご参加表明はブログからお問い合わせを頂くか、このインスタへのDMでも大丈夫です。

Once I talked about the cultural difference in “asking questions” – in Western culture, it is recommended to ask. In Japanese culture, it “can” be considered as rude since a random question can take someone’s time. In Japan, one should think through (study) before asking a question.   ☆ There is…

“Respect” doesn’t exist in words much. It exists in Actions. I have strong motivation for speaking up – I believe our voices can actually contribute to cultural preservation (change to the change). For that, I want to introduce 2 super stars in Mending who gave me hope in the last…
