Olympus - Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Cotton Sashiko Sampler Cloth - White

This is a pre-printed piece of WHITE cotton with a pattern depicting Cherry Blossoms (Sakura) in hitomezashi, a type of sashiko stitch. 

Instructions are in Japanese and English. You can complete this cloth sampler with one skein of sashiko thread, but may choose to use more than one color for added contrast. The colors shown are a suggestion. You can stitch the design in one color if you prefer.

The fabric measures 13.4" x 13.4" (34 cm x 34 cm) folded in half and is printed with dye that will wash out.

This type of cloth is called a "fukin" (pronounced foo-keen), or little hand towel.

Sampler is FABRIC ONLY. Sashiko needles, thread and thimbles available separately in our shop.
