A new collection of Keiko’s hand-dye Sashiko threads are now restocked “in Japan

atsushijp, 2020年8月5日

A new collection of Keiko’s hand-dye Sashiko threads are now restocked “in Japan”… @UpcycleStitches are still waiting for the update by Japan Post for the resumption of the International Air Shipping for restocking. Some of the colors are still available in the Upcycle Stitches Store. Please check the website (https://upcyclestitches.com/store/) or the Instagram Account for more detail.

I shared a story about the Japanese belief of Animism – that a spirit resides in every matter. We also believe that the word (sound) carries the spirit. We talk to the fabric when we stitch. We talk to the thread when we add colors. We believe that it makes a difference. I hope what we make by our own hands with our voice will communicate what Sashiko is to us.

少々在庫が不安だった恵子さんの草木染め刺し子糸。無事、全色揃ったので、ここにて宣伝させて下さい。TheBaseのストアと日本語のオフィシャルサイトでお買い物頂けます。(このアカウント、英語と日本語でごちゃごちゃしてきたので、草木染めや刺し子そのものの個人的な裏話は、是非僕の個人のアカウント、@sashiko_dad – をフォロー頂ければ嬉しいです。)

手仕事をされている人には伝わると思うのですが、製作時、作品に向き合う時にでる言葉というのは、その作品そのものに大きな影響を与えることが多々あります。運針の本質は「考えすぎない」ことだと思うのですが、作品制作の際は、「(これ以上ないほど)思いを込めること」が大事だったりします。刺し子が面白いのは、この2つの矛盾「(結果に)集中しすぎないように、(思いを込めることに)集中する」なのかなと。言葉にすると、「おぉ面倒だ……」となるのですが、結構みなさん実際にされているんじゃないかなと思うんですよね。その点、僕はまだ草木染めは上手にできません。恵子さん程の集中力が出せないんだろうなぁ。恵子さんの素敵な色合いを楽しんで頂ければ幸いです。

“You can share your knowledge without being mean.” Umm. I don’t think I am mean. I am just honest. I do not pretend to be extra nice to be liked about Sashiko in SNS – there are much more important things to do in preserving the culture. If they think…

Ah. Another “cultural” misunderstanding. ☆ When I shared the Sashiko mask saying, “The fabric mask is better than nothing (no wearing mask)”, I received quite a lot of comments saying “Fabric Mask is (completely) useless”. I was shocked, but I am not a medical professional. I researched, and I came…

    These colors looks so wonderful. I get it when you said animism as I get this feeling when I try to find the fabric or thread color to match what I’m designing. It’s like the material just popped right out and said “choose me”😁
