Sashiko for Making and Mending – Saki Iiduka

With this book, you’ll be able to embrace the visible mending movement – the practice of repairing high quality items you already own instead of replacing them with cheaper “fast fashion” alternatives. It also gives you the opportunity to practice the craft, with instructions for 15 handmade items, including:

• Gorgeous indigo pouches
• A rustic linen book cover
• Breezy, multipurpose cotton stoles
• A simple, elegant tote bag
• And so much more!

The book teaches many easy variations of the traditional sashiko stitches – highlighting the impact simple, well-executed stitching can have on everything from embellishing napkins to repairing a jacket. Its gorgeous, thoughtful aesthetic and high-functionality makes sashiko the perfect all-purpose embroidery!
