The last two posts have been about Boro textiles. I have since found a website from the UK about sashiko which is very good. www.sashiko.org.uk/publications.php
The catalogue for the exhibition of Boro I found (by accident) in Tokyo is available to order from Gallery Tsumugi http://www.trocadero.com/haruko/catalog.html
Thanks to Donna Watson for her advice on this.
I've been having a go myself at Sashiko, and here are the results. Very traditional at the moment but liable to change at any time!
I tired to find an appropriate place on the Layers of Lives pages and was unsuccessful. Thus, I am posting on the first open spot, I see. I am intrigued by your work:"layers of lives" as it not only fascinating but lovely candy for my eyes. Thank you for bring such lovelieness to life.
