The letter N catches me up with the rest of the group. My Japanese word with the letter N is Nihon, the word meaning "Japan". I will show some Japanese stitching techniques and a little Japanese stitching kit that I received as a gift, then stitched.
Kogin
This is a needlebook I finished.
This is a bag I started and want to finish!
Sashiko - I've done a few sashiko table runners and such and have a few other projects ready to go.
Temari - I have two Temari that I've started but I think I need some help getting back to work on them.
This simple temari is from a class I took with Barbara Suess at the Japan Center at North Carolina State University in 2006.
Japanese stitching kit - this kit was a birthday gift from some Japanese friends, who know how much I like to stitch! Since finishing it, it has hung in my apartment so I can think of them every time I look at it.

There are so many lovely things that represent Nihon (needlework) and you have made some beautiful items. Your sashiko stitches are so even, well done!
