Thank you for your wonderfully helpful, clear and detailed step by step guide to sashiko embroidery. It's absolute the best tutorial demonstration I have found soo far,especially love the guide to drawing the different sti h templates,patterns, wonderful work😊
Your videos are my go-to for great guidance. I'm thrilled to be learning Sashiko stitching. I appreciate the concise manner in which you deliver the information. Thank you so much.
Making a Zokin is definitely one of the best ways to practice!! You can practice to stitch layers of fabric together and it’s so practical too👍 Did you notice that the first practice piece is similar to the pattern I stitched on Zokin?😊❤️🧵🪡
Your presentations are wonderful. Your instructions & ideas are clear & easy to follow & I achieve a much neater project that I am proud of. Thank you so much! I so enjoy your channel & always look forward to your videos.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment! It’s really nice to hear that my videos have been useful.😊 As I showed one of my earliest work, I struggled a lot at first, so I hope I can share my experience and make it easier for other people to start and enjoy Sashiko❤️💕 I’m still learning and all the comments here really help me keep going. Thank you so much!
Hello, just wanted to say that I found your channel last night because I need to repair a pair of my jeans, and your video was very helpful. I was excited to see a new video posted this morning and look forward to watching more of your content
This is wonderful! I’m trying to learn sashiko and I have purchased a kit with pre-printed design. This will be my next step, drawing my own design and stitching it to learn the spacing on my own. This is very helpful thank you! I love that you showed some of your first projects. Very inspiring to know improvement is possible all it takes is practice!
I love when people share their wisdom - because some skills are clearly wisdom to me, a sashiko is surely one of them. I’m just beginning to discover that path and i’m so greatful, that I found your content so early in my journey. I also love the stories on instagram. I was thinking about that geometrical patterns and wondering, how people dealt with them like 200 years ago, when there were no eraseable markers. Do you maybe have some insights to share about that?
Hi! I don’t know how people marked on fabric specifically for Sashiko, but a Hera marker is the traditional marker used in Japan. I also use it sometimes. At 05:16 in the video below, I briefly demonstrated how the marks look like when you use a Hera. ruclips.net/video/0sILBEK9JvI/видео.htmlsi=2lFTn-67isR22l99 Another way is that people relied on the lengths of their own stitches. I’ve read that people stitched Hitomezashi without drawing a grid first. I’ve tried it in a video if you’re interested😊⬇️ SASHIKO Disastrous ending? I stitched Hitomezashi without drawing a grid and it didn't go very well ruclips.net/video/4TKsR-BeA1s/видео.html
It's the first time I saw this kind of sewing by hand, and first time hearing the term sachiko 😳 i kind of saw curve stitch patterns through fabrics used in sofas but used with sewing machine. I love the patterns you showed it made me interested to try this!
Thank you❤️ Sashiko is traditional and practical needlework, often stitches with Japanese traditional geometric patterns. I hope you enjoy it❤️ By the way, I like Neko too😸
I have just discovered this and your video is so very helpful. I am excited to try out your tutorial. I have the right type of cloth, but is it okay to use embroidery thread to start out with. I have macular degeneration so i wanted to experiment with it first before spending money incase it is just too difficult for my eyes. Thanks for these two larger patterned designs too as that is what i need to help see things properly. ❤ Thank you.
I believe that Sashiko should be an inexpensive hobby, considering the history of it. This is a bit old video but I talked about finding substitutes for Sashiko specific tools and materials. And, yes, I also use embroidery thread sometimes. Basic Sashiko tools and materials (and their substitutes) for beginners- Sashiko basics Part1 ruclips.net/video/mURytGlY0rM/видео.html Also, you can make a thimble by yourself too. I have a couple of videos in the Sashiko Basics playlist on my channel😊
Yep, im still at this skill level. The size and evenness of the stitch are still problems for me, but only when not paying close enough attention. I did notice that long needles help a lot with keeping the hemline straight.
Evenness is still challenging for me too😅 The stitches don’t need to be perfect and the imperfections adds the beauty of hand stitching❤️ but it’s really good to practice something simple like this to remind myself to pay attention to details👍😊
I believe every Sashiko has its beauty and warmth just like the person who stitched💕💕 Although I’ve been practicing to stitch more neatly, I don’t want to stitch like a machine. I think your stitches are beautiful as they are😊
Hi, the circle template I used in this video is from Clover. It comes as a set of several sizes. I bought them from Japan but you may be able to find on Amazon.👍
Thank you for your comment💕 Is your question about holding your needle? If so, I have a video which I talked about the Sashiko style running stitch. This may be helpful for you. Investigating a Sashiko-style running stitch! Sashiko stitching for beginners /How to hold a needle ruclips.net/video/10VvGfBeetc/видео.html It’s probably a very different way of holding a needle to what you’re used to, so I think it’s normal to feel uncomfortable at first. Changing to a longer or shorter needle may make some difference but it also took me a while to get used to it😊 I did a lot of practice and I’m still practicing too💕
Thank you google algorithm! I’ve been trying to learn sashiko for a while. Yours is the first video that I feel competent to give it a go and end up with something I won’t toss! Thank you for great explanations, details and hints! You’re an excellent teacher ❤️ I’m so glad to have found your channel!
Thank you for the question😊 Generally speaking, cotton or linen materials which are not too tightly woven or not too stiff are easier to stitch. They allow you to stitch many stitches in one go and you can pull out your needle from fabric smoothly. Basically, anything you can stitch easily with your own needle is fine. If you are stitching on a single layer fabric like this video, you can use quite a wide range of materials. The fabric in this video is just quilting cotton. I like to use materials from old clothes or sheets because they are soft. You can also mend denim jeans with Sashiko. If you are making a double-layered cloth called Hanahukin (Sashiko stitched tea towel), then I’ve just made this video talking about how to find suitable materials⬇️ Are there any substitutes for Sarashi? I tried to make a Sashiko Hanahukin using this material. ruclips.net/video/CLuHcBuTLQg/видео.html What is easy to stitch for you can depend on the length and thickness of your needle too. Test your material with your needle and see if you feel comfortable to stitch😊🧵🪡
I just watched this video. You have got to see this brilliant women. I bought her book. Susan Bricoe. Fat quarter promotional video. From 4 years ago. Wow is all I can say. Enjoy.
Thank you for your comment😊 I will put captions on later. I’ve been adding captions to some videos but it takes very long time to do it as I have to manually type each line and adjust the timing for them. Thank you so much for your patience❤️💕
You can of course stitch with two strands😊 You don’t have to use two strands always either. It’s very common to change the thickness of threads depending on the projects and fabric👍

I wish I could make the controlled perfect stitches that you make. Yours are just beautiful! A real art form.
Thank you💕💕
Very valuable - thank you!
Thank you so much❤️😊🪡🧵
That's all right about the imperfections, it still look good to me. Besides they can hardly be seen due to the overall project being so beautiful.
That’s right! I keep stitching even if I’m not sure about each stitch because it will look amazing at the end😊
This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing. I will start practicing today. Thanks again.
Thank you😊❤️🧵🪡

where do you get fabric / what weight and type of cotton fabric is best for sashiko?
Thank you for the question😊
Generally speaking, cotton or linen materials which are not too tightly woven or not too stiff are easier to stitch. They allow you to stitch many stitches in one go and you can pull out your needle from fabric smoothly.
