I wanted to try sashiko stitching because I find it beautiful and I need a slow calming activity. This book is very good value, beautifully produced and has very clear guidance. The illustrations are excellent. The full size templates are very good. It inspired me to start samplers and small projects. I enjoy the whole process from drawing the pattern out and then slowly stitching it. I also found everything else that I needed to start at Beyond Measure.

Lovely little needle minder that works fine. Nice detailed design with a tiny heart on the back. Very collectable.
The buttons are really well made, nice and smooth, no scratches or jagged bits. They are the perfect finish for my latest cardi.
