September CHOOKSHED challenge - # 3 SASHIKO

 I went on a sewing cruise back in 2014 for my birthday and did a class with Jane MacDonald.

Have a look HERE at the project she taught and I started.

I have done all the HEXIES. No I don’t like EPP.

So where am I now. A few blocks have been done, some started a lots still to do.


Some started


and a lot still to do


They really don’t take too long to stitch. Maybe after all this time I should get a move on.

I am linking up with Deana for this month’s start. I did not achieve August challenge as we have been away.

Your sashiko blocks look great so far and I think you have inspired Kerrie to give it a try. It is a good project for the travels.

I also like the kwandi underneath the blocks.

Your sashiko blocks look great Jo. I find it very therapeutic just stitching sashiko. It will make a lovely quilt when finished.

The sashiko part is easy...very calming & relaxing. Looking forward to seeing what it becomes.
