Sashiko is a traditional form of Japanese embroidery, often used to stitch multiple layers of cloth together to create warm clothing, or for mending.
This printed sampler cloth is deisgned for making pillows, napkins, handkerchiefs, or any project that you would like to have the embroidery on. Use these squares as the center of a throw pillow, or part of it as a pocket on a dress or bag. These squares could even be incorporated into quilts.
The printed pattern measures 12" x 12", and is on one end of the larger piece of cloth that measures approximately 13" x 28". See the photograph for and example of what one of the samplers looks like when spread out.
This package contains only the printed cloth. Needles and thread will need to be purchased separately.
The printed pattern is water soluble and will disapear when washed or wiped with a wet cloth. Pressing the cloth with your iron could cause the printed design to set permanently and not wash out when you are finished with the embroidery.
The directions in this kit are entirely in Japanese. There are diagrams in the directions that show suggested stitching directions. Here are some suggestion that we have put together that might be helpful:
