| Description: |
Sashiko is a traditional and distinctive form of
embroidery characterized by running stitches ("little stabs") typically
in white thread on indigo-blue fabric. Originally used by Japanese
farmers to quilt together several layers of fabric for warmth and
durability, sashiko patterns are increasingly being adapted as
decorative elements in contemporary designs and needlecraft projects.
Sashiko Style presents 70 different patterns of three types: linear,
curvy and single-stitch ("hitome zashi") patterns. Full-color photos
showcase the many different ways in which the patterns can be used to
make beautiful and useful items such as napkins, tablecloths, placemats
and runners; tote bags; pillows; curtains and wall hangings. The book
introduces basic skills that even beginners can master and includes
detailed equipment lists with photos, as well as step-by-step
instructions for pattern drafting. A special feature of Sashiko Style
is the handy, pullout pattern template
insert. |
