The fabric woven with the image of sashiko is used abundantly, and the color matches perfectly with the can-can hat.
I hope it comes across in the close-up photo of the fabric; it really feels like sashiko has been done.
Sashiko is said to have started as fabric reinforcement and insulation, with each stitch sewn with people's prayers. Nowadays, craft kits to make dishcloths and cushions with sashiko are also sold.
There was a time when I was also obsessed with sashiko.
During the time I couldn't leave the house, I picked it up to try starting something new.
I made fabric with my favorite thread and patterns and made masks. It was a depressing time when I couldn't go out, but I felt happy when wearing the mask. Another good point of sashiko was that it doesn't lose its shape easily even after washing.
Then my grandmother and mother also became obsessed, and the three generations each made various things according to their preferences.
Even in difficult days, there are good memories, so I haven't thrown it away and still keep it.
