Today sashiko stitchers expand their sashiko stitching to include more colors and modern designs, but the classic designs endure. Sashiko is becoming very popular combined with other techniques on surface design projects. Although they look complex, sashiko designs are quick, easy, and inexpensive to complete. Because they need only thread and needle, they make excellent travel projects. Look in the side menu for Boro Stitching supplies.
