Such quilts are very common in north Karnataka India...our elders didn't waste even a small piece of cloth....Nowadays we see very few people who know stitching quilt... I too have stitched some quilts ..
Thank you so much for sharing your quilting experience! It's always inspiring to hear about people keeping traditional crafts alive. I appreciate your support!

I'm about to start on my Sashiko journey - a real beginner! Your videos are so relaxing, encouraging, and informative - I just love this project, but may start with something simpler! I have lots of old denim, from various jeans, with some to repurpose, some to patch up, I'm keen to start after watching you❤️
This was a lovely video and excellent instruction!! Thank you for explaining the history of the Sashiko Boro stitch... made it much more special. I quite excited to do my next project. USA🥀
Hi, my name is Susana, I'm Brazilian and I'm starting in sashiko embroidery. I am loving your videos and delighted with your sweetness in teaching. I'm very thankful. A hug from Brazil!
Xiaoxiao Yarn... Your work is beautiful...a visual metaphor for life. You work as you were to be listening, feeling, and tenderness. And each material collaborates in the process of becoming. It is poetry in visual and motion....thank you to you and your hands...Norma
Lovely mug rug and your soothing voice and detailed explanations make me feel I can do it!!As a french I love when you say "voila".....Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your clear instructions and gentle voice. I’ve watched several channels on Sashiko on RUclips and yours is my favorite. I’ve just begun my first piece and am enjoying the process. 😊
Thank you. I love hemming jeans with Sashiko stitch. So easy and quick to hem my long jeans to capris or shorter for summer wear. I use doll needles bc they're long and pckg comes with 3 needles.
Thanks for sharing such an easy to understand and follow tutorial. I’m in love with the “thimble “ you used on your hand while stitching. Do you have a tutorial for it please?
Your instructions are very clear. I like the idea of adding patches on top of the basic fabric and sewing them in different directions. Could you tell me how to make the palm needle pusher? I have done some sashiko with finger thimbles, but I think what you use would work better for me. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words! Here is how I make my own palm thimble: ruclips.net/video/rW96lpXKAgA/видео.htmlsi=e-uSOavipjMgn8NG Hope it will be helpful! 🥰
Very nice video. When making your binding you could try Elmer’s school glue. Small dots of glue along the folded edge then presses with a dry iron until dry allows you to attach binding without clamps or pins. I love it with my quilts. Enjoyed your instruction
Thank you Connie! I wonder if you do hand stitching or use the machine. I actually use Elmer's School glue for visible mending sometimes, when there are not that many small stitches involved, but I found if I apply high density stitches, the glue sometimes stays on the needle and makes it hard to pass through the fabric. Please do let me know if you have a solution for that though, because I found the school glue is really a good tool to use! :)
@@XiaoxiaoYarn yes I much prefer binding that is hand stitched. I use Elmer’s just little dots then dry iron press. I have used glue for my hexies but used to much so it was difficult to hand sew in places where I got the glue stick to close to the edge even though it was very dry. I have never had difficulty with my needle gumming up when hand sewing or machine quilting. I love it for basting. I have never tried with mending but I am thinking it must be heat dried with hot iron no steam. Heavy mending would be my husbands work jeans. I haven’t worried about frayed edges as I usually put a patch on to cover but think the glue would work well.
Hi! I just found your channel, and I am inspired to try sashiko stitching myself. Have you heard of the Gee’s Bend Quilters from Alabama, USA? They do a very similar hand quilting style and have a deep, interesting history. They have quilts in museums all around the world! Thought you might find this interesting. Thank you.
Very nice and clear tutorial of a wonderful creation! Love the color combination, too. (By the way, I have been amazed about the choice of the word, "boro" for those simple patchwork often combined with Sashiko stitches. In Japanese, the word "boro/ボロ" means "threadbare/worn/tattered, used in phrases like "ボロボロ (worn/broken/threadbare)" "ボロ布 (threadbare rag)", so one strongly feels rather negative feelings about it. I wonder how this word was chosen for this art. There must have been other words...)
Hi Atsuko, thank you very much for the input on what Boro really means in Japanese! ❤️As I explained at 4:30, the method was initially used among the poorer people to mend and reinforce their garments. I myself am Chinese, we also use the word "襤褸“ (same in writing but different pronunciation as "boro") to describe someone who is shaggy in dress or dresses up in ragged garments, but I'm happy that people start to make "襤褸" as a trend these days, and bring back hand mending and hand sewing instead of getting rid of old clothes. Language can be flexible, maybe in different time and contexts, the word "boro" can deliver us a different sentiment. 🙂
thank you so much for this video xiaoxiao!! i've been wanting to start sashiko but havent had the time, and now i'm excited to try this project!! love your channel so much :]
I found the Sashiko stitch last year. I quickly made 6 mug coasters using jean scraps I refused to toss out. You won't be sorry. It's a calming also, no fussing bc it's an easy, EASY but beautiful stitch.
Such a beautiful video, thank you so much for your care and expertise. One question I have is what does this look like if you put it in the laundry or do you need to hand wash each item?
I have so many sweet ideas for making this beautiful tea mat or mug rug. Thank you for your most excellent tutorial. You do beautiful work and I'm very excited to try making it also! I will send you a pic on your Instagram. Thank you!
Hello. Did the Japanese people also make fabric of wisteria? I saw an article about making harden from wisteria bast cell fibres which are found just inside the bark (peel the inner white lining of the bark). It makes lovely long flax like fibre. They said women made fabric for their men folk working in the fields

Sashiko is tough! I machine wash my pieces with confidence. When stitched properly, these beauties are built to last. 🧵🧼
