Saki Iiduka&#39;s book &#34;Sashiko for Making &amp; Mending&#34; is my recommendation for finding a sashiko pattern, though there&#39;s plenty of other sources out there. Drawing a grid on the fabric can be tricky, but even if it&#39;s wobbly, the result is usually still fine. <br/><br/>Or use transfer paper or a heat-transfer pencil to get a pattern straight on the fabric.<br/><br/>One recommendation: don&#39;t try to use color, at least to begin with. Plain white thread usually gives the cleanest result. 2025-04-28T16:53:40Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsrxvy6823d0q3a53laheec74uj3gznsfryuyg49zy3auyx64x4yagzyrhjdjlun7jf768mj9p9tk5kwl90lhel8yhsud2upkzc637cacdecenlfwq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsthee49qww5ztm45dpzh6kh828lk0nccqhavts89ftsyddyy9daqsc0qfdy'>nevent1q…qfdy</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I mean...

I found putting sashiko everywhere distracts from the sashiko there 😅<br/><br/>There&#39;s some blue water-soluble marker staining that I used to draw the grid.
