For your cultural life in Hiroshima Sashiko 刺し子 Garments made of one or more layers of indigo-dyed hemp or cotton fabric can be quilted in the sashiko style in various patterns for the purposes of mending, reinforcement, warmth, or decoration. Also, a style of weaving exists that is in imitation of sashiko stitching. Originally, simple running stitches were made in straight lines to reinforce areas of work garments, clothes, and rags that were prone to wear. Later, as the decorative element became increasingly important, the stitches became more elaborate with each region of Japan developing distinct designs. Sashiko stitching runs in all directions, attaching two layers of fabric so that the front and reverse sides show the same patterns. Although since the Meiji period (A.D. 1868-1912) massproduced fabrics have become more accessible and the need to recycle fabrics has virtually disappeared, the decorative use of sashiko has survived under the influence of the mingei (folk crafts) movement led by Muneyoshi Yanagi (aka Soetsu Yanagi) (Abstracted from Japan: An Illustrated Encyclopedia, pp. 1319-1320, Kodansha) Sashiko is a traditional embroidery technique of northern Japan. As sashiko’s simple patterns go with various things, many people enjoy sashiko stitching on everyday items such as place mats, coasters, book covers and so on. Many sashiko design books are published not only in Japan, but overseas. Also, sashiko kits are sold at craft stores, so you can easily enjoy sashiko at home. Why not try to make your own sashiko item?
