    Thank you for this video, the thing I think I like the most about this process is that you dont have to imagine what your project is going to look like, when you have all your pieces on the fabric you know exactly how its going to look and can easily keep changing it up until you are happy with your design, I think that is very important because how many times have we taken on a project just to find we dont really like it when its finished. I have a 70's nice denim jacket that I am going to liven up with this wonderful method...

    Great tutorial. I have a large box of blue/white garments and fabrics and Japanese indigo squares which I use from time to time. A couple of years ago I made a boro cover for an Old Japan themed journal. I am about to make another one for my daughter who also has a fascination with Old Japan. I have plans to make a Haori style coat (machine made) as well as a bag using boro techniques. It is good to hear an Australian voice. Thanks for sharing. I have subscribed.

    Do you “Save” the fray from when you fray edges?... longer pieces for basting... You are the second person to suggest “Glue Stick” for holding pieces in place, I can imagine the “tips” are flying in groups classes!

  • @Alaskaraised
    @Alaskaraised Год назад

    Thank you so much for this video. I teach sewing and am wanting to teach this in my studio. What types of fabric do you recommend for doing this? I'm thinking if one were to use regular cotton such as quilters cotton they might want to add a fusible backing for stability when stitching. What are your thoughts on that?

    • @IndigonicheSashiko
      @IndigonicheSashiko  Год назад +2

      No, I would not recommend using any fusible backing, use your base cotton fabric to provide stability. The process of adding your fabric scraps ("boro pieces") will provide their own thickness and substance.
