What is this book about?
Sashiko requires a single technique, worked one stitch at a time. Sashiko techniques and pattern have been handed down from generation to generation in different parts of Japan, as handiwork that is part of life. This book describes the equipment, materials, and techniques used to create a traditional Sashiko quilt, and shows how to transfer designs.
