Six Dragonflies - 8.5" Niche Sashiko Template

Dragonflies were often used on the armour of Japanese Samurai. Dragonflies were thought to be fearless, swift and courageous and because of this they were believed to bring the soldiers strength and protection. 

Our Niche Sashiko Template range gives you the confidence to draw your own Japanese inspired designs straight onto your chosen fabric or garment. 

Our templates are created with the perfect stitch length for each design, which means you'll never again need to guess the number of stitches required for the best outcome!

Our Niche Sashiko Templates are available in 2 different materials:

Mylar: These are made from a heatproof mylar and are transparent, thin, flexible and are not prone to breakage. The thinner material makes marking your fabric easier and allows a greater range of pens/pencils for marking.

Acrylic: Our Acrylic Templates are made of 2 millimetre thick, transparent acrylic material, similar to patchwork rulers. These templates are quite solid and do not have any movement or flex to them. Due to this they are a little more delicate and if dropped could crack. If using our acrylic material template a Sewline or Bohin ceramic pencil is best as they fit perfectly through the very fine stitch marking cut outs in the template.
