I love Boro style and very new to it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Are all of your fabrics from Japan as well and do I need to buy special yarn as well? Thank you 🙏🏻
🙄 colors that were chosen for this project are sad, drab, depressing!!!! A Perfect project . ( colors say much about one's inner self ) "God gave us color to enjoy"👌🙆♀️🏞🌄🌇🏙🌹🌿🌻
Looking for a definition of Boro. I was never told what Boro is and what is the history or purpose? Keep hearing maybe you could do this. Is it this just an art form? Where did it originate?
I laughed. That was so funny to me. I like the mild tones. On a table runner I'd want it to be a subdued focus because I'd want pretty colorful dishes, vases, flowers, etc. be brightly colored.
Sue Howe provided the process for Table Mat. So interesting with great fabrics too- more beige, dull medium brown and white! Very well picked those fabrics! Thank you, Sue
Interesting progress with your grey, black and those designs in those colors with texture- so love your free- style way to design your table mat- thank you- the fray edges are attractive too! Enjoyed Sandra Myer
Muy buenas noches, me maraville con sus bordados con la técnica japonesa. A pesar de no entender su idioma igual le entiendo mirándola, gracias, saludos Consuelo desde chile, bendiciones ❤
Do you “Save” the fray from when you fray edges?... longer pieces for basting... You are the second person to suggest “Glue Stick” for holding pieces in place, I can imagine the “tips” are flying in groups classes!
Since sashiko thread is an S-twist thread, I like to identify the twist via running my fingers along a single thread. Afterwards, I tie a knot around the head end. As I remove working strands, I insert those ends into my needle for a smoother experience. 😀
An interesting video on cultural misinterpretations and the misplaced use of words that define something historical applied to a fad in another country. He explains that boro + placemat concept to the Japanese like drinking from a toilet. Also using the word "inspired" Here's the vid: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kwQSM1wtwes.html
Thank you for this tutorial. I wanted to try this but wasnt sure how to start it. Your work is lovely ,I like how you made the wall hanging its very smart love the flowers on it .
just commenting here. I love colours and florals.not a plain fabric person,nor a dark fabric person.also,I hate frayed edges.n eat freak I am. so,how do I incorporate that into Boro " inspired ". because as you say,we should honour the original methods.recently,I have found Kantha stitching and they turn all rough edges under.
