Sashiko Denim Scrap Bag Tutorial

May 18, 2019 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

The popularity of Sashiko is beginning to stagger – with no queries why.

This beautiful art of traditional Japanese embroidery was first used as a form of repair, evolving into a decorative style and a stand-alone craft. The biggest idea in Sashiko stitching is simply a repetitive pattern, finishing with a unique and beautiful final product.

In this tutorial, you learn how to make a tote bag in the style of Sashiko with denim scraps. Stylish, recycled, and crafty, this embroidery project is one you’re ALLOWED to be messy on.

Why not give it a go? Perfect for a gift to a fellow crafter or even someone special, brush up on your embroidery skills in a fun and relaxing project.

Made By Toya is the crafter behind this masterpiece. Check the full, free tutorial over here.
