Sashiko: the needlework form of both decorative and functional
embroidery developed in Japan many centuries ago. With just four
key materials needed--needle, thread, thimble and fabric--Sashiko
stitches have long been a favorite for quilting and embroidery.
Today, the style is popular in the visible mending movement because
of its simplicity, efficiency and aesthetic appeal. With Simply
Sashiko, you can apply centuries-old Japanese techniques to your
home, clothing and accessories in a fun, modern way. This book
gives you simple but thorough lessons on the ins and outs
(literally) of 36 different sashiko patterns, plus designs for
stylish home and personal accessories so you can try them out,
including: Decorative pouches Little purses Placemats and napkins
Covered brooches and buttons And much more! Step-by-step
instructions and detailed color photos show you everything from
transferring patterns to perfecting your stitch technique.
User-friendly templates help you keep your motifs balanced and
even, while color combinations ranging from the traditional white
and indigo to multicolored threads on primary colored backgrounds
inspire you to get creative with these basic stitches.
