NB - international shipping* is temporarily disabled. New shipping rates by weight will be coming soon!
*EU shipping can only resume when the EU simplifies its VAT regulations on mail orders. Please complain to your MEP to try to change the regs for small non EU businesses! We can't calculate, charge and remit the different amounts of VAT to all 27 EU countries four times a year, when we are one person businesses. It is too much admin and too expensive to employ an EU based agent as currently required.
Dates for your diary for 2023 - we will be at World Textile Day Central, North, Scotland, and Wales,

Here is a small selection from my large range of sashiko threads that would be good for stitching boro. I have mainly selected threads with more 'traditional' boro thread colours, but of course you can use any colours you like - this page simply has some suggestions to get you started. The thicker sashiko threads are best for more loosely woven fabrics, while fine threads will be easy to use on all kinds of fabrics. Shop for more sashiko threads by type or colour.
