I’ve been quite busy experimenting with a variety of sashiko and boro design concepts for table runners, some traditional and some modern, two of which are now available in kit form.

5 Motif Sashiko Table Runner
Five traditional Japanese family crests depicted in sashiko stitching. I’m very happy with this rustic type of striped fabric for bordering as I feel it both contrasts and complements the sashiko motifs beautifully and simply.

Dragonfly Sashiko Table Runner
This runner actually began as a set of six Australian sashiko coaster dragonfly designs, which I stitched as a unified runner panel with a palette of red, white and yellow sashiko threads. I think the cotton print fabric chosen for bordering looks fabulous.
I have a lovely boro runner coming soon to the store, which I recently previewed on Facebook and Instagram.
