Saito revived this traditional Japanese technique before it became a lost art. There is a specific correct way to form each stitch; every other way is wrong! Designs are repeated by many embroiderers. Work is done in silence and concentration. The teaching method is to demonstrate (in silence). The student learns to observe and imitate. Yet there is a place for innovation. This apparent paradox is distinctively Japanese.
I would love to learn to do this but it's simply too expensive - the lessons, the material, the tools all are costly. Even the membership to JEC is too much for me. It's a shame because this art form can actually appeal to young people, and should not, imo, be exclusively for the affluent. I understand quality costs money but this is prohibitive for many. I wish JEC offered scholarships or small project kits that are more affordable.... Oh well... Maybe when I'm no longer a poor student I can take a course - if I don't feel too old.
I feel the same way as I live too far away plus due to medical conditions I can't go. I did visit their website and you should also as it is beautiful to scroll thru. I have ordered several of their books since I already embroider and already have several Japanese embroidery books I bought off E Bay which have been extremely helpful. You can also learn from You Tube videos not only Japanese but several other forms of embroidery which I am just discovering.
