I do love the texture of this embroidery, both visually stimulating and the touch would be wonderful, too.

Sashiko is a form of decorative reinforcement stitching from Japan that started out of practical need during the Edo era.

Thanks BirdNana. From the time I first saw this type of mending-art, I was fascinated by it. I am glad you enjoyed it. Funny how we are both posting blue at this time.

It does look great and it seems to be easy. Interesting to learn about it. Thanks!

It is actually a form of darning with simple straight stitched arranged. I think it would be meditative to watch.
