This coordinated combination of five 20m sashiko threads includes #53 pink to white, #13 mid pink, #14 cherry blossom pink, #02 cream, and #01 bright white, reflecting the variety in the colours of the spring cherry blossom. There's a 5% discount off this bundle too. Please note - this mercerised thread feels slightly thicker and fluffier than the 100m sashiko thread, which is mercerised and feels a little smoother by comparison. Mercerisation was only introduced to Japan in the late C19th, so this thread feels more like the 'old fashioned' sashiko thread. For all your sashiko, boro inspired stitching, big stitch hand quilting, creative embroidery etc.
Ideal with the Olympus Thread Mfg. Co. printed sashiko sampler hanafukin panels. Many hanafukin require one skein of thread approx. if used singly, more if used doubled. These colour themed packs are a great choice if you want to vary the colours used on your panel, perhaps coordinating several panels, by using the same selection of thread colours.
NB - thread labels are now kraft paper brown. Previously, this range had white labels. It is the same thread, made by the company that prints my sashiko panels.
All these threads are also available individually.
