An innovative new style of sashiko from a leading embroidery and patchwork artist!

Prolific embroiderer, quilter and author sashikonami combines her love of sashiko with her fondness for piecework to create a whole new style of sashiko stitches and applications. Some of these patchworks give you a chance to play with patterns, colors and textures to create strikingly original bags, pouches, tableware and accessories.

The 11 sashiko stitches (three of them original) and 23 projects presented in this book feature:

●Rows of uneven running stitches to create jagged stripe and check patterns that look fantastic on any item
●Fun asymmetrical patterns created with white threads on pastel fabrics to create brightly-colored textured table settings
●Traditional stitches applied to vividly-colored fabrics (often with two different thread colors) for a radical new look
●Contrasting stitches on patches to create charming tote bags, potholders and more!
