I often receive a similar question:
“How can I learn Sashiko (and Boro) from you—to stitch like you do?”
Over the years, I’ve written many blog articles to answer this, including a central guide titled One Stop for All About Sashiko – Atsushi Introduces. But for those who prefer a quick and simple overview, here it is:

This blog post simplifies the process of learning Sashiko, but I want to emphasize:
Sashiko and Boro are lifelong journeys. Continuous learning, reflection, and practice are part of the path - especially if you are willing to learn what Sashiko & Boro really are.
Let’s keep stitching forward—together.
