Sashiko: The Japanese Art of Mending Fabric With Stitches

Janice Dreese

First developed in Edo-era Japan circa the 1600s, sashiko, or 'little stabs', is a form of decorative embroidery that looks as fantastic today as it did four hundred years ago. Merging traditional patterns and modern twists, this ancient artform offers everything one could hope for in a hobby: relaxation, endless fun, and, ultimately, perfect presents. Seamers, dreamers, pros, and newbies: welcome to a world of fun! We know that YOU can sew . . . Inside you'll learn: - What Is Sashiko? - Tools and Materials - How to Start Sashiko? - Top 7 Sashiko Tips - DIY Sashiko Denim Repair (Boro) Bombarded by the white noise of modernity, it's growing increasingly important for everyone, young and old, to find creative, quiet outlets.
