Sashiko 365 - Susan Briscoe

From sashiko sewing expert Susan Briscoe, Sashiko 365 is a paperback guide to stitching a new sashiko pattern every day of the year. Rooted in a traditional Japanese decorative sewing technique once used to reinforce clothing and other textiles, sashiko is now widely used for visible mending and creative embroidery projects.

Inside, you’ll find 365 different patterns, each presented as a stitched sample photograph alongside a clear diagram showing stitch direction and the order of work. Every design is worked on a four-inch square, making it easy to build a daily practice, then bring the swatches together to create a sashiko quilt featuring all the designs. The book also allows you to record the date of each sample you stitch, creating a personal log of your sewing over the year.
