I did get a
little stitching in edgewise between my chowing down on strawberries and shrimp 'n' grits, lol. Remember that sashiko washout sampler and thread I bought at the MAQF show?
Pardon the crumpliness, but I was working on it on the train and while relaxing at the house. It's pretty fun to do and I really like the bold abstraction of the patterns.
While in Charleston, I stopped at
People, Places & Quilts at 1 Henrietta St. downtown. it's a great little shop with a very friendly staff.
This is a little shibori fabric and sashiko bag that I picked up
Arise, at a local Maryland-area store that specializes in Japanese and Asian decor, furniture and clothing. I'm always finding interesting things there--like yards of
kansuri-style indigo fabric. I keep my sashiko stuff in it (and the sampler too right now--hence, the crumpliness).

I am glad you enjoyed my blog. It is certainly important to try to maintain peace. I want this war to end as soon as possible. Peace can be a reality.
I also like to do sashiko--many years ago, I actually went to Japan with some other quilters and we had a lesson in sashiko.
