Sashiko Hana Fukin Toy Horse design is printed on navy 100% cotton fabric.
Hana Fukin means a cloth for household use. You can use these in the kitchen to cover a bowl of fruit, eggs or breads, or as absorbent tea towels. Or you could make a cushion, or stitch several to make a runner. Stitch a few more and make a quilt top...
The design is printed on the fabric in dashed lines which will wash out after you have completed your stitching. You just thread your sashiko needle with sashiko thread and enjoy the stitching.
The sashiko printed design is 12" x 12" but the fabric provided is 13" x 26". For a nicer and more traditional sashiko piece, fold the unprinted fabric to the back of the printed fabric and do the stitching through both layers. (This also keeps the thread on the back showing through the fabric on white fabric pieces)
Use sashiko thread in one or more colors, Two 20 meter skeins will be enough. I've included English directions in this pkg.
This fabric and the sashiko thread will become prettier after being washed a few times. Be sure to finish any raw edges first, but then you can throw it in the washing machine. Remove while damp and iron.
Note: Please do not iron the design before you have stitched it or the printed design may not wash out later.
