Perfect thank you!

Hi I notice your hand have a material attached to palm and fingers, can share the purpose of this material and what kind of material is it?

I’m so eager now to try this! It’s so beautiful to see that jean so „worked”. Would you consider to use a stitching hoop?

Could you add salt or vinegar to make them permanent?

Hi Kate! I am excited to see this video!

Эти штаны давно пора выбросить.

Lovely and very pertinent to my family's and my past having been WW II pows. Thank you.

I would like to buy jeans fabric to make table sets or cloths with different designs

Do you have a link to the needles you used. I have ordered shashiko needles but they are not long like the one you demonstrated.

Thank you for this because Dritz MarkBGone is just too faint sometimes

Thank you. Until now I put jeans patches on the outside. I am wondering if those inside patches are uncomfortable and rubbing against the skin?

A good demo. You can buy sashiko needles and threads very easily online. However, sashiko thread and needles are not specifically designed for mending. They are designed for sashiko. Sashiko was traditionally added to garments and household textiles when they were first made. Using the fancier stitch patterns for mending isn’t traditional- although it does look good. It is a modern idea. When torn clothing was patched in Japan, what is now being referred to specifically as boro, the stitching was rarely hitomezashi (one stitch sashiko) like this. There are plenty of extant items which show how crudely the stitching was done. Hitomezashi patterns like the one being used for the repair here, were used in various parts of Japan - in Shōnai, Yamagata Prefecture, this jūjizashi (‘10’ 十 or cross pattern) was used on hanten work jackets and sorihikihappi sledge pulling waistcoats when they were made, and also used on Awaji island on fishermen’s donza coats. The stitching wasn’t a repair though, and was done to strengthen and add warmth when the garments were made. Frixion pens disappear with heat, but they don’t wash out. The lines will come back if the item gets cold. For denim, the kids’ wash out markers are better, which were also mentioned.

Great instructions! Looking forward to trying this out

Beautiful ❤

I like this idea! Is there a reason you did the stitching after making the bag, rather than before sewing it together?

Nice one Kate!!! You got me thinking

Would never have thought to use soap as a marker, just thrown one out, will have to get washing my hands more often! Thanks for the tip, beautiful jeans 💙🧵🪡

I bought chalk pencils but they don't make a mark on denim so I'll get friction pens or washable, children's felt pens.

Mindful stitching has given me many wonderful afternoons of simple, calming and therapeutic rest. I don't know if it has helped my sleeping or not, but it certainly has calmed my monkey mind. When I stitch, I only think about what I'm doing, allowing my crazy thoughts a reprieve and my mind a much needed rest. Cheers from sunny FL :-)

Lovely video! I’ll be making one and donating to the poppy appeal too 👍

Thank you. I will make one for my jumper. I'm living in the US and the Remembrance Poppy isn't sold here. Sadly.

This is exactly where my daughter wears out her jeans :) I loved watching your instruction, but not sure about the holes next to the seams in the crotch. Did your sewing catch those holes or is there more that has to be done, there? Thanks much!

21:28 - I bought a 3-thimble set from Daiso a while back, and I wasn’t sure which finger or where on the hand I was supposed to place the one that you’re using, so now I’m excited to try it out!

Im surprised at the amount of fabric inside the jeans.

These are so pretty! It makes me wish I wore jeans.

I’m completely new to this! Please tell me more about your “needle book”!

Why is the thread a lighter colour?

❤❤❤ your travel case! From the comments, I see you are working on a pattern. How can we find out when it is release, please?

That tip about washable markers is worth the price of admission alone - LOL! TFS.

I’d be interested in the pattern too once it’s available!

Do you have a pattern for your very cute and functional travel sewing kit?

Does it feel comfortable to wear or is it itchy? I have a friend with sensory issues who would love a pair of their jeans reworked

Wonderful tutorial. Very informative. I was wondering why you didn’t cross your stitches, as in the earlier patch?

Is there a pattern for your travel kit?

Cool ❤️👍

Good info, thanks!

Very interesting! Thank you!

Beautiful !!!!

Beautiful !!!

It’s my understanding is that the sashiko technique is that these stitches are to be used on working clothes in order to make them last longer.

Awesome

I like your idea ❤

You don’t save the paper piece? It gives you all the information about thread!... loop the thread through then tie around the paper piece...

You don’t want to tidy up other patches?... tucking the shaggy parts under? Confused.

Have you used card to wrap around?...

Have the books, but needed to “See” how done...

Thimble?

Don’t you “Feel” the extra bits while wearing...
