These are beautiful needles, lovely to hold and use for Sashiko stitching. Beautifully packaged too with a little note inside about how they are made.
Lovely thread which is perfect for the job it was bought for, namely Sashiko stitching. This was my first time doing this sort of stitching and I found this thread perfect…it gives a really lovely finish. Can be used as a single thread or doubled up.
Thank you Grace! A lovely item to look at and an item that will be well used!!!
