Colourful Sashiko - Sashikonami

From Japanese embroidery author Sashikonami, Colourful Sashiko is a paperback guide to creating sashiko designs in vibrant colours, offering a modern approach alongside traditional Japanese patterns. Designed for anyone keen to explore sashiko, it begins with the basics and simple designs supported by visual instructions, before moving on to more intricate stitch patterns for those looking to develop their skills further.

Across more than 60 geometric patterns, shapes and combinations, the book explores a spectrum of coloured threads and fabrics rather than traditional indigo. Expect a mix of motifs, including floral designs, basketweave and musical notes, plus practical project ideas such as dish cloths, purses and mini tote bags, coasters, pouches, face masks, sponge bags and glasses cases. Guidance on pleasing colour combinations and thread choices is also included.
