Why We Wrote This Book

We have created this book to be a beginner’s handbook for sashiko enthusiasts and included what

we believe are the most effective and easiest techniques. The designs featured can be embroidered

using techniques that may differ from the ones published in this book, so please don’t feel re-

stricted to use only the methods outlined here. We hope you will experiment with stitching

in a way that feels most comfortable for you. The best way to learn is to simply pick up

needle, thread and fabric, and have fun! Please refer to pages 26–38 first for all Hana- fukin designs. As you embroider, you may have questions or may be uncertain about how to proceed, so we have compiled an index of handy information on pages 4-5.

Sashiko embroidery emerged out of necessity hundreds of years ago,

as a way to reinforce and preserve fabric, which was scarce and therefore

valuable. The women who created this utilitarian craft eventually found

themselves developing more fanciful designs and patterns, purely for

aesthetic pleasure. In particular, the “Hanafukin” (the ubiquitous

Japanese kitchen cloth) sashiko stitching style incorporates a

variety of designs in beautiful and interesting ways—form and

function rolled into one. This book will introduce you to 36 ways

to embroider in the Hanafukin style, as well as other small

sashiko-embellished accessories.
