Sashiko means "little stabs" and is a Japanese style of hand embroidery. Beautifully intricate patterns are created with a simple running stitch using thick cotton Sashiko thread. Sashiko is great for beginning and advanced stitchers alike. Easy to learn and relaxing to do!

I had same issue with this pattern as Nautilus. I switched to perle cotton #8 instead of sashiko thread to be able to see the stitches better.

I was excited to get this design. Different from other samplers. Was disappointed there was no backing like other sashiko pieces. I will have fun stitching it. Please bring new Sashiko samplers that have backing including.
You always try to get in new items which is great. Love to see more Sashiko

Different!
I was eager to grab one of these Water Ripples samplers. Different from other, obviously Oriental motifs, it reminds me of the raked sand of Zen gardens. I'm going to have fun stitching it!
