The projects are grouped according to how we live, for example: living; sleeping; eating and exploring. Sewing and quilting expert and fabric designer, Karen Lewis, has used a limited palette of earthy tones and the best quality natural fabrics including linen, cotton, denim and wool to create a stunning collection of simple, sewn projects.
Try out some simple wabi-sabi style sewing techniques such as hand hand piecing, sashiko embroidery, big stitch quilting, and visible mending to create unique items for your home whether it's a full sized bed quilt, simple coasters for your favourite mug or a stunning scarf to wrap up in.
Book Features:
- Wabi-sabi syle sewing techniques such as kantha, visible mending and sashiko are trending across social media and sales of the Ultimate Sashiko Sourcebook continue to be strong.
- At quilt Con this year the daily workshop programme began with "Wabi-Sabi Yoga" and participants were encouraged to bring the qualities of simplicity and imperfection from their yoga practice into their sewing.
- The first book to bring the wabi-sabi concept - which is well known within the art and textiles communities - to the sewing community.
