Just arrived, this gorgeous new sashiko panel from QH Textiles, 'Windchimes' (first photo), printed on grey (officially black) on a yarn dyed two tone nep (slubbed effect cotton). The catalogue colour is black, but because it is a two tone with black and white threads, the effect is definitely a lovely neutral grey - just as it looks in the photo.
This pre-printed Sashiko cloth is hand-printed with water soluble ink on soft yarn dyed fabric. Just follow the stitching lines and enjoy!
English instructions are easy to follow.
Fabric size: 14” x 18.5” (37 x 47cm approx.)
Finished Size: 12” x 16 1/8” (30 x 41cm approx.)
100% Cotton.
NOTE: The markings on this pre-printed Sashiko fabric wash off after you have finished stitching. Don't prewash!
The second photo shows its companion panel, 'Twilight Dragonfly'. Both panels are also available in taupe brown, slate blue, and burgundy.
I suggest edging the raw edges with a machine zigzag or narrow overlock stitch to prevent fraying before you start.
