Learn the beautiful Japanese textile folk art of sashiko embroidery (it translates as 'little stabs') to a make a geometric patterned placemat.
This tutorial could be amended to make a small cushion, tote bag or book covers. Quite different to Western embroidery, sashiko uses a longer needle to load multiple stitches onto it before sewing through.
You'll need:
- Open weave indigo coloured cotton fabric
- Sashiko thread
- Sashiko needles (stronger and longer than standard sewing needles)
- Tailor's chalk
- Sewing pins
- Pattern template (draw your own using the video as an example)
