Sashiko and Boro are a new sewing experience to me, I have purchased 3 books and this one outshines them all, if I had bought this first ,I wouldn't have bought the other 2. It has everything you need to know about this beautiful Japanese craft, it covers everything from the things you need to create an authentic piece, how to achieve this, the history of the craft and all the amazing traditional patterns used in its comprehensive pattern library, easy projects to get started on, where to source your thread, needles and other things to make your experience super enjoyable, working the simple patterns is relaxing and they look beautiful. If you only buy one book on Sashiko make it this one you will be delighted with it and it will be your go too work book, Enjoy

There are lots of beautiful patterns in this book but I’d hardly call it ultimate. The history is interesting but I didn’t find it helped me learn the patterns and there was more of it than I needed to know. The explanations of the patterns were a bit superficial and not very clear. An interesting insight into a very accomplished craftswomen but overall a bit disappointing.

This book is great as an introduction to Sashiko. Great pictures with detailed explanation of its history, stitches, fabric and designs. It’s great value for money and I am very pleased with my purchase.
