As I started my Sashiko journey, I wanted to try out a bundle of threads. The rose-red is the perfect accent color on any beige or off-white fabric; it isn't terribly bright but just the right shade to compliment the fabric. Highly recommend and can't wait to dig into the pink, purple, green, and off-white on the cherry blossom sampler (also available on this site! Search for "Large Sashiko Sampler - 4 Panel Cherry Blossom Tree").
