Sashiko is a style of quilting that
originated in Japan. Its beauty comes from the repetition of geometric
designs. By the addition of horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines, the
patterns become enriched and more exquisite. These patterns have been out of the
reach of longarm quilters - until now! I have designed templates to take the
mystery out of the quilting of traditional Sashiko designs.
At the present time, I have two different styles of Sashiko
Templates - Circles & Waves and Sashiko Star. Both of these template work
in the same basic way, but make totally different designs.
Sashiko Quilting is a very precise
quilting technique and requires extra time to create. As a professional
longarm quilter, my Sashiko quilting is priced at my highest pricing.
About the Templates
The Circles & Waves template and the Sashiko Stars template are made from 1/4
inch thick neon acrylic. To ensure accuracy, each template is laser cut
and laser etched These
templates may look a little funny, but they are designed to compensate for the
width of your hopping foot. When you stitch around the template shape, your
design will be precise. Due to the precision cutting of these templates and
slight difference in the size of the hopping foot, you must indicate the brand
of your quilting machine.
Each template includes a complete, multi page, step-by-step,
photo illustrated, spiral bound instruction manual.
