DARUMA Sashiko Sampler

These sampler cloths from Daruma are a good way to try sashiko and some of the traditional patterns used.  They come as a pre-printed cloth which is doubled up to create a neat cloth with finished edges.  After stitching the printed lines will disappear with a gentle wash.

The finished cloth size is approx 34cm square.  Some designs are available in white or navy. 100% cotton, made in Japan.

English instructions included.  Most of these designs take 1 card of Daruma sashiko thread in thin or thick.   The following designs take more:

White Clover - 3 cards thick or thin
Cross Flower  - 3 cards thin or 3-4 cards thick
Mountain Range - 2 cards thick or 1 card thin
