Shop Online. Sew Fresh.

A Threaded Needle is moving to Maple Ridge BC March 1. Nothing will change for our online customers, but for our local show shoppers it means we will be missing some spring shows :-( We will still be at Creative Festival, Abbotsford, and we'll have a small booth at Creative Festival in Victoria in March.

Sashiko Preprinted Tsumugi Fabric Panel

Be Be Bold

$37.99

This is a lovely panel of ready to stitch sashiko designs. 8 - 8" x 8" blocks and a series of bonus motifs on soft Japanese tsumugi cotton fabric (looks a bit like shot cotton) in navy blue. The print washes away completely so keep it dry till the stitching is finished!

Recommended thread - 100 meter skein Olympus thread

This makes a nice set of blocks for a quilt. We have pre cut 4" x 4" mixed color tsumugi fabrics to combine with it, and some solid colors in tsumugi yardage as well. The navy momen fabrics also combine well with this fabric for weight and drape.

I always recommend pre-washing fabrics you are going to combine in a project so that if they have different rates of shrink, it is got out of them before they are stitched together. BUT don't wash this until AFTER stitched! Ans I doubt you need to prewash very small pieces like the 4" squares.
