New templates/stencils are a modern twist to traditional Japanese sashiko embroidery. First know your basics, how to hand draw the grid that forms the basis for most designs. Then see the modern approach. This is sashiko and beyond - use the template as is, or learn to go further and use as just the basis for a further design and make a hitomezashi pattern. It's still traditional pattern, but a different way of achieving it that may be a little quicker and simpler so as a beginner we can take our skills to the next level. You'll blend ancient techniques with this modern flair. Add a new spin to your sashiko creations and have fun.
