The composition of all your tools and materials is a work of art in itself! For those of you who are following this lovely talented lady, I encourage you to make your own palm thimble like she has made.....it is one of the best tools for sashiko. I might add that I have made a pincushion filled with crushed walnut shells, dedicated for sashiko needles only.
I found it on Etsy and that is what the description said. I was not too sure if that was correct either because i couldn't find it anywhere else. It actually looks almost, but not exactly, like Asa-No-Ha. It had a little bit more detail. I will have to go through some of your older posts to see if you have made it.
The composition of Mikado tsunagi is also based on hexagon just like Asanoha and many other patterns, so I can imagine using it as a Sashiko pattern too. I think it’s a really good idea😊❤️🧵🪡
Thank you very much for pointing out this video. I must have missed it while exploring your videos. I just found a shop in Canada that carries so many sashiko and stitching supplies called The Threaded Needle. I can’t wait to begin!
Thank you! I haven’t been able to use it much on videos because the lines are not so visible on screen😅 but they make clear and fine lines. It’s especially great with soft fabrics which are hard to draw lines with other erasable markers!💕
I'm a beginner at sashiko and this video was so helpful. I've been doing embroidery and red work for decades but I find sashiko extremely interesting. Thank you for your wonderful videos
Thank you and welcome to my channel💕💕 I’ve been doing Sashiko for many years but I’m still learning. This channel and the viewers have been helping me a lot to learn more. I’ve seen some Japanese people who stitch Sashiko in the way similar to red work. I’ve also read that Eiko Yoshida, a famous Sashiko teacher and book author(unfortunately she has passed away) also used to do French embroidery as well. She wrote that she would use embroidery thread for Sashiko as well. Sashiko seems to be very inclusive and I believe that your amazing experience will help create your own Sashiko😊
I am currently working on a pre-printed mikado tunagi piece that has smaller stitches than I have been doing , and I am so glad that a while back you recommended the Tulip needles as they work so much better on this fabric and pattern. To me it is worth spending a little bit more money on good quality needles.
Mikado tsunagi! I know the pattern as a Kumiko (traditional woodwork) pattern but I don’t know if I have seen it as a Sashiko pattern yet. It would be beautiful as Sashiko❤️💕❤️💕
I used the sashiko techniques you share last night to make the initial stitches for the hem on the skirt that I had been making for a while now. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences with us all.
For my hand thimble, I covered a prescription bottle cap with thick felt. The inside of the cap faces out so the lip of the cap catches the needle should it slide off. I'm still trying to find a white erasable pen. Hey, I have a hera marker which I didn't know what is was used for as it was my mother's. I should try that instead of buying all these pens drain fast. Love your videos.
Thank you for watching! Sorry but I don’t have the links for the pens. The blue one is from Leonis and the white one is from clover. If you are in Australia, both of them are on Amazon.
I am just learning Sacha cow and watched your video and liked the look of the I think was a placemat in the opening. I would love to do that for my table and was wondering if you can tell me about the pattern and if you just made it up or is there actually a pattern.
Hi! Most of the patterns in this video are from my past videos😊 You can find them on my channel. They are mostly traditional Sashiko patterns. Also, there are some patterns I drew up inspired by some Kimono patterns and a woodblock print. The very first one in the video which is unfinished is Asanoha. You can learn how to draw this pattern in this video. ua-cam.com/video/BXEMdOG4mEI/v-deo.htmlsi=59eiOtLfKcW5pmOS
I haven’t tried on every fabric, but it may not work on knit and some other materials. It seems to work better when you put your fabric on a soft surface such as an ironing board. It’s not perfect but very handy for certain projects😊 I used a Hera in this video⬇️ from 05:07 ua-cam.com/video/oFUWy_BwP14/v-deo.htmlsi=mAXx04pF8KrmyrDH
Thank you for sharing the info. I have been wanting to try sashiko forever. I am a quilter and was thinking how great it would look on a quilt. Do you think pearl cotton would be too heavy a weight for this style of hand work?
Hi, thank you for your question😊 I don’t know much about western style hand quilting, but I’ve done a experimental Sashiko using some batting between fabrics before😅 Based on the comments from many experienced quilter viewers, my conclusion is that you can stitch the patterns which are used for Sashiko, but you’ll need to adapt the method of western style hand quilting rather than the method of Sashiko. So I think that the best thread for hand quilting is the best for your project (Sashiko thread may not be the best option).

Size 8 is slightly thinner than my usual Sashiko thread. ua-cam.com/video/CzdDLDBVPkk/v-deo.htmlsi=Vf4Rt6Ygvn3j18Pv I hope these videos will be helpful for you❤️
@@thegreenwrapperthe sarashi needles in the green box with the red tie! I’m looking forward to trying them out in an up-coming project. I’ve only used shorter needles before
The Tulip ones? Isn’t the packaging very cute?💕 The needles are great for Sashiko. However, I’ve broken them a few times trying to stitch through thick layers of fabrics, so I don’t recommend for thick materials😅
@@thegreenwrapper thanks for the advice! The thick ones have been ok on denim so far, even very thick layers, but I’d like to try something more delicate!

Thank you, using one or two strands of embroidery floss for small (button) projects,great tip. ❤

Your thimble sounds amazing💕💕 In old sewing textbooks, they often instruct to draw a grid with a Hera. I use it for making Zokins as well😊
Thank you 🙏

@@thegreenwrapper thank you. I just realized the since I dictate my messages it did not say Sashiko. It doesn’t understand me 😀
Hello!Thankl u for sharing!I want to ask about the Hera,IS it work on any fabric ?
I haven’t tried on every fabric, but it may not work on knit and some other materials. It seems to work better when you put your fabric on a soft surface such as an ironing board. It’s not perfect but very handy for certain projects😊
