Sashiko or stitch? - Handling of needle with Japanese indigo scrap -

 Here is the pictures which I have just made "the Japanese indigo's collection" .
Do you know how sashiko's stitch is different with normal stitch. It's not thread. Sashiko needs to sew one by one stitch.
 The following is just stitched. Hope you can see deference with the above pictures. It's much flat.

 The following picture is my favourite textiles collection. I enjoyed making kimono bags with these textiles for last 6 years.

Now all only scraps. S I made with my memories.
Indigo Kasuri, Chijimi, hand dyed indigo's cotton. All so nice!
I know it's silly to frame it. But I will!
