Oh I can see that you like things in order, just like me! Do you suppose that it is why we love Sashiko, the stitches being even and patterns that are neat and even????? My granddaughter is the biggest thrift store shopper I have ever known and so we spend a lot of time there, sometimes we find very little and then there are times we come home with lots of treasures. Many years ago I used Asian inspired fabrics to make a quilt for my granddaughter who was adopted from China. I always have loved the gorgeous flower designs on those fabrics, and so it was a delightful experience to make that quilt.
Oh you are right😆 I think I like mending and repurposing old items with neat Sashiko stitches so that they look revived. I felt the embroidery thread would look nice if I put them in the tin neatly! I wish I could see your quilt! My grandma used to make me a lot of things such as dresses, dolls and bags. I loved every single item❤️
The Fiskars two-sided cutting mat can also be used with a rotary cutter for cutting fabric, when quilting, or shaping fabric pieces for slow-stitch projects! Great size (8"x11"), too. Enjoyed the entire haul & yes, you saved money ! Great job with the camera & editing. Many thanks for sharing!
Excellent haul! And those tiny cardboard bobbins with the embroidery floss on them are so cute! I bet someone made them. Definitely someone who cares about storing threads. They don't look like store bought. And how perfectly they fit in that tin!
I really enjoyed your video. Congratulations on your great finds. I cannot wait to see how you transform them. And that jar of thread - amazing find. ❤️❤️❤️
What a nice findings, I love the firt batch of colorful japanese motives fabrics. We don't find this in ours shops unfortunately...the most approching kind is "coupon" and it's never on sale 😢 We also call the rough fabric "jute" in French😊
The bag of fabrics really was a good find! It was so handy for me to have many different patterns😊 I think we call the material ‘jute’ in Japanese as well👍
very useful!! i like how you go through your thought processes when looking out for things in thrift stores. i will also keep in mind these things!! and haha i too get sidetracked a lot, its nice because it feels like you're enjoying yourself
Somehow there are a lot of thrift shops (‘op shops’ in Australia) around where I live and I keep finding good items. We even got a mid century style coffee table when I found the thread and burlap😆
I just found your videos recently. I enjoy watching them. I want to learn sashiko and boro stitching. I’ve just barely began this journey. I would really like to see a video on marking sashiko designs with the orange scrapbooking templates. I purchased some like yours from a thrift shop thinking they might be useful. 😊Thank you for sharing your thrifting treasures with us.
I can't believe those are op shop finds, especially the yukata! How absolutely lovely. My mother's a cross-stitcher and I'm all about sashiko and kogin, so this has inspired me to keep an eye out next time I go thrifting~ Also, the fabric you've used for the second kogin piece is, I think just from looking, 11-count aida. I've often used pieces left over from my mother's cross-stitch for my own kogin attempts ♥
Oh thank you❤️ The Kogin material was indeed looser than the congress fabric (18 count) I usually get from Japan. The pattern became a lot larger than I expected. Still, it was good enough for practicing👍 I actually have seen yukata and jinbei at op shops before. You might come across with one as well💕💕 They are always kids size though.
Those are some really lucky finds! I love the kimono fabrics, and those threads are wonderful. If you haven’t tried Blackwork yet, I recommend it. I’ve tried recently and am now addicted! It’s better to practice on the cross stitch you showed in the video. There is a fair bit of crossover with sashiko, but the results can be very different. I’d love to see what you could do with it. And the old haori jacket looks lovely. The fabric looks so soft and comfortable. It should make several beautiful items!
The embroidery floss you put in the tin had the colours written in dutch on them. I don't know where you found them but knowing a bit more about the previous owner can make those items feel extra rich in history. So i thought i'd tell you 😊
Oh thank you so much💕💕 I had no idea! It is really nice to imagine about the previous owner😊 When I donate something, I always hope that they will find a new owner who looks after them well. So, when I get something at a thrift store, I really want to make sure that I look after them well too❤️ Thank you again for the information!
I absolutely LOVE going to thrift stores. My fave here in Central Oregon (USA) is the Humane Society Thrift Store. There's a whole section on crafts and I rarely leave there without finding floss and miscellaneous things for junk journaling. I used to go to the Goodwill stores until I found out the CEO and other Big Cheeses in the organization make hundreds of millions in salaries.
I’ve heard that the pricing overall has gone up at many thrift stores. I enjoy going to smaller shops run by smaller organisations as they have more unique items at reasonable prices. I hope they keep the pricing low for people who are in need and who choose second hand for the environment🌎🌱
Such an inspiring video - lovely to be able to share all your wonderful finds. I am sure Marion has mentioned you (Marion's World) and you just came up on a TH-cam thumb nail. I have never tried Sashiko, but am keen to try. So very pleased to have found you and have subscribed. Looking forward to working through your back catalogue of videos. Best wishes from Lottie in England.
Wow, was this channel mentioned by someone? Thank you for watching💕💕 If you’re interested in Sashiko, making a Zokin may be a good place to start😊⬇️ I heard that my grandma used to make Sashiko Zokins. So I tried to make them as well! th-cam.com/video/L54-Fz9M55w/w-d-xo.html
Taking the time to go look is best. Manifest what one is looking for. I saw threads on cards but I thought I should use up what I have or it be sitting. But I think if I go back it may still be there 😂.
Hi! That’s called Kazaguruma (風車) from a book by Kondo Hiroko. As I think it’s her original pattern, I’m not able to share how to draw and stitch but you can probably purchase her book on Amazon. The title is 嫁入り道具の花ふきん教室. It has detailed explanations but all in Japanese.
Surely that haori would benefit from some actual sashiko mending? It would be beautiful and totally unique. Here in the UK charity shops now almost exclusively selling clothing and not even nice clothing like your haori. I don't bother going in them any more, there's nothing I want and it's too expensive to boot.
I suppose, in my mind, the silk haori was to wear on a formal Kimono, so I didn’t think of mending it with Sashiko which was often done on everyday work clothes of people who couldn’t afford new materials easily. I’ll see how silk was mended in old times😊
The templates are from Fiskars but I couldn’t find exactly the same set online as this is from a thrift store. You may be able to find a similar product though👍
@thegreenwrapper I think jute describes the material while burlap or hessian describes, as you found, woven fabric that can be made from jute. Wonderful video :)

Oh it’s so useful! I’m happy about the cutting mat😊💕💕
Don’t worry too much about sticking to your focus, remember to also follow your joy ❤
The organization of the threads in the tin for example is so satisfying, definitely worth the detour, I’d say! 🙃
Thank you😊💕💕💕
Excellent haul! And those tiny cardboard bobbins with the embroidery floss on them are so cute! I bet someone made them. Definitely someone who cares about storing threads. They don't look like store bought. And how perfectly they fit in that tin!
It was such a good find😊 I have to take a good care of them too!💕💕
Wow! Such great finds. I especially like the material and the embroidery threads.
Thank you💕💕
My gosh! You hit the jackpot 🎉🎉
Yes😆 Thank you!
Excellent finds. Can’t wait to see what you do with them 😊
It’s really fun to think what to make out of them😊💕💕
Fantastic finds, thanks for sharing.
Thank you💕💕

Thank you😊 It was really fun to open the fabric bag and the jar of thread👍
Oh these are such beautiful and useful findings!! Unfortunately the thrift shops where I live are mostly full of junk. 🌼

Blackwork looks so intricate and beautiful. I’m sure I’ll be addicted once I start it😆
What a great haul!
I'd definitely call that rough fabric hessian.
Can't wait to see all the projects you'll make with this stuff!
I’m going to start using them soon💕💕
Here in the US we might call that “burlap,” too. Nice haul!
The embroidery floss you put in the tin had the colours written in dutch on them. I don't know where you found them but knowing a bit more about the previous owner can make those items feel extra rich in history. So i thought i'd tell you 😊

The jute material looks a lot like Burlap fabric! Nice find, it looks like a higher quality one that the ones ive seen around lately.
Thank you! It does feel like a 100% plant based material😊
Taking the time to go look is best. Manifest what one is looking for. I saw threads on cards but I thought I should use up what I have or it be sitting. But I think if I go back it may still be there 😂.
I once really went back to get a bag of thread and it was gone! So this time I was pretty sure that I had to get the jar!😆
wow, you scored!😮
Thank you👍
I LOVE a good op shop session. Well done on a great variety of items. Where on earth did you find the haori?
The haori was from a sale bin at a Japanese vintage shop. Proper kimono and haori were expensive but those damaged ones were super cheap😊💕💕
I love your mug 🥹
Oh thank you😊 It’s from an Australian pottery called Robert Gordon.
In the States, the loosely woven fabric might be called burlap.
Thank you to much😊💕💕
@@thegreenwrapper yes we call it burlap in u.s.
Awsome 🥰👍
Thank you💕💕
Excelente datos, gracias 💜🥰💜
Thank you💕💕
I'd mend the Haori with some of the Japanese patterned cloth you got.
I didn’t think of mending it! Thanks your suggestion😊💕💕
@@thegreenwrapper Glad yo plant the seed. :)
What's the name of the pattern you're stitching at the beginning of the video around 00:24?
Great haul!

Same in Ireland, charity shops are too 'sorted' and expensive, I have given up on them too.
Hola, me interesó tu video como muchos otros que te he visto. Podrías decirme dónde conseguiste las plantillas?
Ya observé la marca, creo que con eso tengo para buscarlas.
The templates are from Fiskars but I couldn’t find exactly the same set online as this is from a thrift store. You may be able to find a similar product though👍
That loose material looks like burlap. . . .
Thank you so much😊 I saw that name as well when I was searching! There were like three or four names, so I got confused😅
@thegreenwrapper I think jute describes the material while burlap or hessian describes, as you found, woven fabric that can be made from jute. Wonderful video :)
@shastahill oh that makes sense! Thank you so much💕💕
What fun \(^-^)/
Thank you💕💕
