9781784944872: Sashiko: 20 Projects Using Traditional Japanese Stitching

Synopsis

Sashiko is a traditional sewing method, meaning little stabs.

Learn the stunning art of Sashiko stitching with this comprehensive guide that is packed with inspirational ideas. 

The process uses evenly spaced running stitches to create eye-catching geometric patterns. It has a humble background, originating as a form of darning a way to strengthen weak areas of clothing. However, its utilitarian beginnings have since been shed, and it is now a popular form of decorative embroidery. Sashiko explores the history of this strikingly effective technique and demonstrates how to apply it to a range of useful and ornamental items for the home, accessories, and gifts. Minimalist by nature, Sashiko sits perfectly in modern interiors as well as traditional environments, giving it broad appeal. Following thorough guidance on the tools, materials, and basic techniques, the 20 appealing projects are suitable for all levels.

Large projects include:

  • Bedding
  • Door curtains
  • Wall-hangings

Smaller projects include:

  • Brooches
  • Greetings cards
  • Notebook covers

With a selection of 20 patterns and motifs that readers can choose from and use as templates, get ready to create beautifully impressive pieces that provide you with your own unique Sashiko designs that you can showcase at home or give as a one-off gift to a loved one.
