Have you got all your materials together for Sue's sashiko online class? This is what we need and the class starts on Wednesday. The step by step tutorial comes in a course of emails.
So far Teresa, Patchwork Rose, and Jenni will be sashiko-ing along with Sue and me (and lots of other people signed up to the Sashiko Stitcher Newsletter). It's not too late to sign up here with us or with Sue. Read here for all the information.
the materials list:
-22 x 16 inch piece of 100% cotton, navy or indigo blue
-12 x 18 inches white lightweight fusible interfacing
-#5 perle cotton thread or sashiko thread
-sashiko needle
-thimble (optional)
-seed beads and bead needle (optional)
-scissors, iron, ruler and a dark color fine tip permanent fabric marking pen
As well as the tutorial Sue promises some history and tidbits too, should be fun. See you on Wednesday.
DK at http://mangomerle.blogspot.com/ is in too :)
ReplyDeleteI will be joining you. I'm still waiting for my order to land here in Australia. I think it should be here any day now. ;o)

ReplyDeleteI will be like Dot....waiting for my order and hoping I won't have too much catching up to do!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely, Lis. I've just seen the part one. I've done sashiko some time ago. Might be something I could pick up again.
