I never heard of them before and can't imagine how they work. The sashiko stitches look perfect.

I am wondering (and I suppose it has to be) if the eye of the stick and stab needle is in the middle? I love the look of Sashiko but have never tried it. So many wonderful things to try and to do. Have a great week, Karen!Funoldhaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484311080018327229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566941118175210463.post-89046200701743496842011-02-14T08:00:39.992-05:002011-02-14T08:00:39.992-05:00Very cool to be trying new things.

It would seem to be very hard to get used to double pointed needles but very handy if you have lots of seams to go through.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing your block book :0)<br /><br />CrispyCrispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784813169069471560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566941118175210463.post-31427445862021057812011-02-14T03:03:15.831-05:002011-02-14T03:03:15.831-05:00What a wonderful way to spend the day!

Like you I have collected all the bits but have never actually tried it yet, thanks for the inspiration and encouragement. Your little star block is darling, Karen, and I think it would make a lovely little quilt! Enjoy! :)Valentinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13212523427936081626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566941118175210463.post-59085977845155409832011-02-14T02:45:33.142-05:002011-02-14T02:45:33.142-05:00I haven't tried the stab method of quilting, I...I haven't tried the stab method of quilting, I usually just stick to the rocking method, but I have done sashiko. I was taught by a Japanese lady, who said your stitches should look like nicely spaced little grains of rice sitting end to end. So that has been my yardstick!!!<br /><br />Love your little hand pieced Friendship Star block. Looking forward to seeing your completed quilt!!!Merilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017362688960778176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1566941118175210463.post-14643934366236868942011-02-14T02:45:24.223-05:002011-02-14T02:45:24.223-05:00What a great way to spend your saturday!
