The Alphabet Club - S

This month's "S" word is Sashiko, a Japanese needlework technique.  


Here are a few of my finished sashiko pieces.  






Linking up with Chiara at The Grey Tail.

I love your sashiko stitching. I plan to stitch a piece for sure while I recover from this surgery!

When I look at your pictures I realize that white stitches on navy cloth shows off more than the opposite.
Oh, you have made some beautiful things with sashiko.

I loved doing the kit you sent me for my birthday a few years back. It is very fun to stitch!

Your Sashiko stitching looks lovely. I especially like the 'classic' version on dark blue (at least I think that's the one seen most often?) and I really have to try myself on some of this some time soon!
