Thank you so much! I stitched a half of this project late night when I could finally have my own time, but it was really nice to end a day with slow stitching 😊🧵🪡❤️
A dear friend gave me all of his sewing gear before moving to another country, including a box of bobbins of thread in many colours. He sadly passed a few years ago. Now this is a perfect tribute to him by embarking on a project like this. Thank you for the "nudge"!
That’s a beautiful idea💕 While I was stitching this piece, I imagined about people who originally bought these threads (especially the gold and silver threads!). I wondered what they made with them, though I had no idea who they were. I think the process of stitching by hand gives you the opportunity to imagine or remember something or someone. It’s a really wonderful way to remember the person who gave those threads to you❤️🧵🪡 Thank you for sharing it❤️💕❤️💕
Beautiful ending! Now I know what to do with the 70 yo old cotton sheets I found in my mother's house after she passed, they're still solid and I didn't have the heart to toss them out. Thanks for the inspiration.
You always come up with the greatest ideas and I love that! This would be a good project to take in the car and do, while I wait for my husband getting his chemo threatments......it is so relaxing. Thank you for making my day, once again.😍
Your bag and your process are so inspiring! I find slow/hand stitching relaxing too. With arthritis developing, it's getting slower and slower but I still enjoy it. Thank you for sharing your project.
Thank you❤️ It takes time to stitch by hand but I really enjoy the slow process itself too. Those stitches never look perfect, but I love the warmth of them as well🪡🧵😊❤️
This is so beautiful ❤️ I can’t believe how such simple shapes, and a few thrifted threads made such a lovely panel. Making into a bag was very clever too! Thanks for sharing your ideas.🤗
Such a lovely project! Simple yet detailed- I especially love the gold circle design, it really sparkles. It kind of looks like the sun peeking out through windy or rainy weather. Beautifully done.

Здравствуйте! Попала на Ваш канал, всё очень впечатлило. Интересная работа . Отдых за шитьём! Обрадовало, что МАСТЕР-КЛАСС с субтитрами. Однозначно - подписка! Спасибо 💐.
I just found your channel. This is a fabulous bag, makes me want to sashiko, I have the needles and threads but I don’t like them. After using embroidery threads of all types, I found it string like.
Thank you so much😊 You don’t have to use particular needles for Sashiko. I choose a needle depending on the fabric. Also, I stitched Sashiko using different types of threads including embroidery threads recently⬇️ This may be interesting for you🪡🧵😊❤️ th-cam.com/video/CzdDLDBVPkk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=O8oAcWUkLH2sIP-_

Wow this is so very lovely!! The colors and design are wonderful!! Love those metallic threads, too. Great way to rescue abandoned threads. Love it! May I ask what is the little middle finger cushy tool you use? What is it made of? Thank you in advance! 🌸
Thank you💕💕 That’s a Sashiko thimble to push the needle. You can buy one, or you can make one by yourself😊 Here’s the tutorial for my version of Sashiko thimble⬇️ DIY Sashiko thimble making (Part 2) with a metal covered button kit th-cam.com/video/h3ghKK5V5I4/w-d-xo.html
Hi, I am in love with this bag! My question is what kind of fabric is that? I have muslin but my muslin is thinner than what you are stitching on. Your fabric looks a bit thicker and I really like the look of the cloth and would really like to buy some. Would you happen to remember what it is? Thank you so much and I love all your tutorials. 🥰
Hi! I got this material from a thrift store and it didn’t say what kind of material it was. I think it was 100% cotton broadcloth. It was almost like calico but it felt smoother than that. It’s always best to test your material with your needle and see if you can run the needle smoothly. If the fabric is too tightly woven, it may be hard to make fine stitches😊
That looks like a great bag for future projects! I’ve rescued lots of tatting weight thread from a local thrift store to use for sashiko. It may be older than I am and works up like a dream. I’ve steamed and dried the thread to make sure it wasn’t brittle just because it looks like it’s 50+ years old.
That’s amazing😍 I’ve been also looking for something like that. I didn’t think about treating them like that before using. That’s a great idea! Thank you so much for sharing❤️🧵🪡
1:38 1:48 d id love to know how you steamed the thread. Did you unwind it, steam it, let it dry and then rewound on spool, or did you just steam the spool with thread on it
Ciao,non ti conoscevo ed ho trovato il tuo video per caso.Sono rimasta stupita dalla tua bravura nel fare i punti filza...che ago usi?Io è da poco che ho iniziato a fare questi punti a mano ,ma,forse uso un ago sbagliato perché più di 3/4 punti,non riesco a farne,tu ne fai tantissimi e poi sono tutti meravigliosamente allineati(mentre i miei vengono fuori tutti storti 🤷♀️).Davvero complimenti per la tua bravura e grazie del video(mi sono iscritta così potrò continuare a guardarti)❤👋👋
Thank you so much❤️😊 I actually used a general sewing needle which came as a set of different sorts. I normally check if the needle is easy to stitch through my fabric before starting. I’ve found that the combination of a needle and a material have a significant effect on the stitching experience. If you found your needle hard to stitch, maybe it was not for the particular material. I hope this will solve your problem! Thank you again for finding my channel❤️
Hi, Pauline here,greetings from Australia 🇦🇺😎 I just came across your channel & subscribed 🤗 What a lovely project, turned out so nice xx I will definitely be creating this pattern, I'm thinking a cushion first,then the bag for sure xx I am hoping,over time to master the way you manoeuvre your needle stitch😉😉 I will be binge watching your past videos 🤗🤗 TFS

Sashiko stitching for beginners /How to hold a needle th-cam.com/video/10VvGfBeetc/w-d-xo.html I wouldn’t call this slow stitching project ‘Sashiko’ but the way I hold a needle really helps to stitch a running stitch efficiently👍🪡🧵
I see that you do not use a thimble. The view of what you do use to push the needle along are littke pads that tie up around your middle finger. Can you show us what they are. They look home made. You hold your fabric and needle differently than most, you can also show that technique. Thank you. ❤❤❤😊😊😊

That's wonderful!! I love it 🤩 I'm just starting a slow-stitch hobby. Non-sewer forever, but this intrigues me. Of course, I can't just do something. I want it to be something really cool and this certainly fits the bill. And WOW the colors of threads in that first bag you opened: spectacular! I've been thrifting for years and all the thread bags are the same tired OLD dreary colors. What a find.
Thank you😊❤️ I assume there are very crafty people living around my area. I keep finding beautiful threads and yarns at thrift stores! How can I resist them😍
Hello, I just found you whilst looking for slow stitch ideas, I am a random kind of stitcher and love to use lots of colours, and fabrics too, I seem to go off randomly every time I attempt sashiko 🤦♀️ your work is beautiful and exciting, so I have subscribed. This may help me try it again 🤞 I am now off to see what other things to fall in love with, that you have made 😊🤗🌈🧶🧵🪡
Thank you so much for finding my channel❤️ Sashiko involves planning and preparation. I really love Sashiko but sometimes I have this urge to just stitch randomly without planning😆 I hope you enjoy other videos too❤️🪡🧵
Thank you for your reply, I am not a planning kinda person, lol that's probably why I find it hard to stay on track, I will watch your saskiko videos and see if I can stick to a plan 😊 I am that random stitcher, although I find it hard to start off, then it becomes easier as the fabric becomes filled with colour 🤗🫠🧶🧵🪡
I used to be a quilter, but I just don't want to do it anymore, I don't know why. Maybe I just made enough!! I have never seen this before. I have a small pattern for a teddy 🧸 bear about 9 inches. I'm going to try this. I am going to make it out of muslin. You just found yourself with a new subscriber.
OH.. You slow stitch with that thread that goes on the sewing machine too? I never thought of that. I got a bunch of old bobbins like that shiny silver one you have. Is embroidery floss the usual choice? I know anything kinda goes but wondered.
Hi😊 My slow stitching usually involves reusing and repurposing materials. It can be an embroidery floss, Sashiko thread or crochet yarn. I just use whatever I’ve got at that time. Sometimes I dye old materials using food scraps such as onion skins. They are not always ideal materials for hand stitching 😅 but reusing them is a big part of my slow stitching🧵🪡❤️ I explained a little more about the materials in this video⬇️ th-cam.com/video/-ZAyve168iU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gxzRsA6DG-CxBFJG
Thank you so much❤️😊🪡🧵 I haven’t been able to put subtitles on all of the videos but I’m working on it! 👍 There are many viewers from non-English speaking countries. Thank you so much for your support❤️💕❤️💕
Absolutely Brilliant. I love the artistic flow and creativity. Making your slow stitching into something useful and so beautiful is a real bonus! Great Work!
So beautiful. Love your design and color choices. I’m new to sashiko and you are an inspiration to me to continue on my journey of sashiko. I love your videos and plan to watch them all and stitch of course.
It’s plain cotton. I don’t know exactly what it is but it’s like broadcloth or something. Not very thick. If you use thicker fabric, you may not be able to make fine stitches. I’d recommend testing the material with your needle beforehand. I’m sure cotton thread would be much easier to stitch than sewing machine thread😆 They were almost too fine… I don’t remember the size of the needle (I think it was mostly a thin needle from Tulip which I purchased in Japan) but I always test the combination of the needle and fabric. Even with the same needle, it feels different depending on the material.
I just found your channel and I love it! I like to do all kinds of needle work but have never seen anything like this and I am in awe. I can't wait to look at your other videos. You are so creative. Thank you for this great video
Thank you so much😊 Yes, I’ve been very careful with strings and threads (and needles) around my cats. I can never leave my materials on my desk and I have to pack them away always… They certainly love long objects😅
I have never counted it, but I accumulate the fabric on the needle as much as possible when I stitch straight. When I use a long needle, I can go for 30cm or so depending on the thickness of the fabric. On a curved line, I take out the needle more often to create a smooth curve😊
I used to have the same problem a lot😅 If you pull the thread gently, you can often find a potential knot where the thread is twisted. When you see it, you can prevent it from getting tangled by pulling that part a little to straighten it up👍
It is a lot of work but I proceeded this project little by little, sometimes just for 5 minutes, sometimes for half an hour😊 It was really relaxing, especially when I had a busy day💕
Thank you❤️ The circumference of the smaller bag is about 40cm and the height is 20cm. The diameter of the bottom is 10cm. The distance between the loops is about 6.5cm (6 loops). The width of the loop bands is 1cm. The circumference of the taller colourful bag is 42cm and the height is 27cm. The diameter of the bottom is 12cm. I made 8 loops for this with the distance 5cm between them. The width of the loop bands is 1.5cm.
Thank you❤️😊🧵🪡 The ring is a Sashiko thimble. The metal one in this video is something you can commercially purchase but you can also make one.

Something I do for fun was becoming stressful without me realising and this reminded me to relax and go with the flow again. Thank you so much! 🌟
Thanks for posting. This, to me, is what slow stitching should be. I’ve watched many videos with a variety of ideas but yours is the one I like best. And this is the one I will try. Thanks again and many blessings to you.

Hi, thank you for the question😊 I just used a general hand sewing needle for this project. If you hold a needle just like I do, it would be easier with a slightly long needle. As long as your needle slides through your fabric smoothly, you don’t need a special needle🧵🪡
You really created a piece of art, I just love it 😍 Did you hold the threads only doubled? It looks quite thick on the fabric but quite fine on the spools.
Thank you❤️ Yes, they were very thin, mostly polyester threads for sewing machines but they were just doubled. I think the concentration of the stitches made them look clearer. There is a close up photo of this bag on my Insta page if you want to see it closely😊 instagram.com/p/C3IG_oBhhEZ/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I hope the link works🤞
@@thegreenwrapper many thanks for your reply, I was really curious🤭I once found you over the furoshiki & stayed for the stitchery🤩 Many thanks for all your work here😚
Thank you for the question😊 That’s a Sashiko thimble. It helps to hold and push a needle and protects your palm.

What a great idea! I have many drawers of threads that I purchased over the years. This would be a great way of using them up while creating something nice. I don’t think you stitch too slowly as you seem to get a lot done in one pull. This would make a great cushion cover or wall hanging. I bet you get a lot of compliments on your bag. It’s surely a one of a kind!
Thank you so much❤️💕 Many drawers of threads😍 Sounds amazing!! You’re right. My stitching speed is actually not slow😅 Perhaps my slow stitching is about a slow process. Each project often takes weeks or months because I proceed little by little🪡🧵💕
Absolutely amazing. Now I want to grab my fabric and threads immediately - but I really must start making dinner 😊
Thank you so much! I stitched a half of this project late night when I could finally have my own time, but it was really nice to end a day with slow stitching 😊🧵🪡❤️

Thank you so much🥹❤️💕❤️💕
Is it cotton fabric ? Looks thick fabric. Can we use simple cotton thread 🧵? What is the size of needle 💉?
It’s plain cotton. I don’t know exactly what it is but it’s like broadcloth or something. Not very thick. If you use thicker fabric, you may not be able to make fine stitches. I’d recommend testing the material with your needle beforehand.
I’m sure cotton thread would be much easier to stitch than sewing machine thread😆 They were almost too fine…
I don’t remember the size of the needle (I think it was mostly a thin needle from Tulip which I purchased in Japan) but I always test the combination of the needle and fabric. Even with the same needle, it feels different depending on the material.
I just found your channel and I love it! I like to do all kinds of needle work but have never seen anything like this and I am in awe. I can't wait to look at your other videos. You are so creative. Thank you for this great video
Thank you so much❤️😊🪡🧵
Beautiful! One of a kind! Thank you for sharing your marvelous creation!
Thank you so much😊❤️🪡💕🧵
Te quedo sencillamente genial . Yo lo hubiese enmarcado, creo que luciría formidable
That’s a wonderful idea😊💕💕
That's really nice! It turned out so pretty. Be careful with the drawstring around the kitty.
Thank you so much😊 Yes, I’ve been very careful with strings and threads (and needles) around my cats. I can never leave my materials on my desk and I have to pack them away always… They certainly love long objects😅
i have need a patchwork buyer
How many stitches do you make in one go? Before you pull the thread?
I have never counted it, but I accumulate the fabric on the needle as much as possible when I stitch straight. When I use a long needle, I can go for 30cm or so depending on the thickness of the fabric.
On a curved line, I take out the needle more often to create a smooth curve😊
Спасибо за идею!!! Нитки лежат целый пакет. А ткань , можно разрезать ненужную простыню.♥️
Thank you so much❤️ Yes, it’s easy to find materials for slow stitching without buying anything new!👍🧵🪡😊❤️
This is so beautiful! I would have framed it and hung it. Thank you. 💐
That’s a nice idea👍 Thank you💕
I am surprised that ur tgread does not get tangled or knotted. That would be tge first thing that would happen to me. 😅
I used to have the same problem a lot😅
If you pull the thread gently, you can often find a potential knot where the thread is twisted. When you see it, you can prevent it from getting tangled by pulling that part a little to straighten it up👍
That’s fabulous. I enjoy sewing too. I might give this ago
Thank you so much😊🧵❤️🪡
Очень красиво!с большим удовольствием наблюдала за вашей работой.
Thank you so much❤️😊🪡🧵
Что делать, если свободного времени много и его некуда девать... Завидую. У меня столько времени было в детстве.
It is a lot of work but I proceeded this project little by little, sometimes just for 5 minutes, sometimes for half an hour😊 It was really relaxing, especially when I had a busy day💕
Tienes muchisimo gusto, gracias por el video, saludos
Thank you😊❤️🪡🧵
This is Kantha embroidery of Bengal,India
Oh I love Kantha❤️ I hadn’t thought about it but it certainly does have the element of Kantha😊 I’d love to learn Kantha in the future!
Love this can I ask the end measurement please thankyou
Thank you❤️
The circumference of the smaller bag is about 40cm and the height is 20cm. The diameter of the bottom is 10cm. The distance between the loops is about 6.5cm (6 loops). The width of the loop bands is 1cm.
The circumference of the taller colourful bag is 42cm and the height is 27cm.
The diameter of the bottom is 12cm. I made 8 loops for this with the distance 5cm between them. The width of the loop bands is 1.5cm.
@thegreenwrapper thankyou now I've found you I'll watch all you utubes .

Beau travail . Pouvez vous me donner le nom de la bague pour pousser l aiguille pendant le travail
Merci pour votre réponse 10:16
Thank you❤️😊🧵🪡 The ring is a Sashiko thimble. The metal one in this video is something you can commercially purchase but you can also make one.
This one here is my favourite and I use it very often in my videos⬇️

Es muy interesante tu técnica, porque es algo parecido a dejar fluir tus emociones a través de los diversos colores y texturas creadas. Defiendo el trabajo lento, por eso me alegra que exista la aguja y los hilos de muchos colores, aún en estos tiempos modernos, llenos de prisa y estrés. Felicidades! Muy bello tu trabajo! 🌺
Thank you so much for your beautiful comment❤️🧵🪡😊
@@thegreenwrapper Éxito en todo lo que emprendas. Saludos desde Costa Rica, América Central. ¡Pura vida! 💐
Very difficult,but in the end Very beautiful and useful.❤

Ce projet réalisé est absolument ravissant. Bravo.
Thank you so much😊❤️🧵🪡
Truly a work of art.
Thank you so much❤️😊🧵🪡
Oh wow I just really love that. What a great way to use up old threads ❤
Brava, hai fatto un bel lavoro!! Grazie per avere messo i sottotitoli in italiano.
Thank you so much!
I’m gradually working on subtitles.
I’ve also added subtitles on this video recently if you’re interested ⬇️❤️😊🪡🧵
I made a Sashiko sampler with 9 different patterns! Sashiko stitching idea

Gosh this video couldn’t have popped up in my recommended at a better time! I’ve been agonising over starting a new project because I couldn’t decide what I wanted to do. Something I do for fun was becoming stressful without me realising and this reminded me to relax and go with the flow again.
Thank you so much! 🌟
Thank you so much😊❤️🧵🪡
Fabulous ...I love the entire process
Thank you💕💕
Thanks for posting. This, to me, is what slow stitching should be. I’ve watched many videos with a variety of ideas but yours is the one I like best. And this is the one I will try. Thanks again and many blessings to you.
Oh thank you so much💕💕💕
Полный восторг! 🎉 Спасибо!
🌸🌺🌻🌹🌷🌼💐
Thank you❤️😊🧵🪡
Very pretty! Are you using the thread double?
Yes, I stitched with double threads as they were mostly very thin threads for a sewing machine🧵🪡😊
Its turned out beautyfull....Danke ❤
Thank you❤️😊🪡🧵
Beautiful! I’m going to find a thimble like you use and try the same method of stitching. 😃
Thank you! You can actually make a Sashiko thimble by yourself. I have a couple of videos showing how to make one.
Here’s my favourite one⬇️

Mi potresti dire che ago ci vuole per fare questo tipo di ricamo grazie
Hi, thank you for the question😊 I just used a general hand sewing needle for this project. If you hold a needle just like I do, it would be easier with a slightly long needle. As long as your needle slides through your fabric smoothly, you don’t need a special needle🧵🪡
I love this!!! My slow stitching always involves bits of fabric put together. I am going to try sewing on a big piece. Thanks.
Thank you❤️ I wanted to emphasise the threads in this project so I chose the simple plain fabric😊 I like to stitch small fabrics together too.
Awesome work ❤️❤️
Thank you😊❤️🧵🪡
I adore this project! How inspiring! I love the idea of stitching organic lines. I want to try it very soon. Thank you for another wonderful video!
Thank you as always❤️😊 This is different to usual Sashiko videos but I’m glad that you enjoyed it💕
Gorgeous ❤❤
Thank you❤️😊🧵🪡
You really created a piece of art, I just love it 😍
Did you hold the threads only doubled?
It looks quite thick on the fabric but quite fine on the spools.
Thank you❤️ Yes, they were very thin, mostly polyester threads for sewing machines but they were just doubled.
I think the concentration of the stitches made them look clearer.
There is a close up photo of this bag on my Insta page if you want to see it closely😊

I hope the link works🤞
@@thegreenwrapper many thanks for your reply, I was really curious🤭I once found you over the furoshiki & stayed for the stitchery🤩
Many thanks for all your work here😚
Your comment means a lot to me❤️ It’s really rewarding to know that someone is enjoying my videos. Thank you so much😊💕
What is the ring thimble thing on your right hand?
Thank you for the question😊 That’s a Sashiko thimble. It helps to hold and push a needle and protects your palm.
I think I was wearing a few different ones in this video and a couple of them are handmade.
Here’s a tutorial for one of them⬇️

how very serendipitous 😊 pretty!
Thank you💕💕
I've been making bags and baskets for years with sewing it's a great way to use up those end threads that you no longer
That’s great! I really love the idea of using up or reuse something you’ve got😊❤️🪡🧵
Such beautiful work!

Genial!!!
Просто восторг. Такой интуитивный процесс, при условии имеющегося уже опыта и умения. Попробовать хочется тут же.
Thank you so much💕❤️💕❤️🧵🪡
What a great idea! I have many drawers of threads that I purchased over the years. This would be a great way of using them up while creating something nice.
I don’t think you stitch too slowly as you seem to get a lot done in one pull. This would make a great cushion cover or wall hanging.
I bet you get a lot of compliments on your bag. It’s surely a one of a kind!
Thank you so much❤️💕 Many drawers of threads😍 Sounds amazing!!
You’re right. My stitching speed is actually not slow😅 Perhaps my slow stitching is about a slow process. Each project often takes weeks or months because I proceed little by little🪡🧵💕
@@thegreenwrapper I tire easily of projects so often Ihave many on the go at once. Perhaps I could be considered a "slow" crafter lol
What a Fantastic project!! Beautifully done!👏👏🥰
