October's project will be sashiko stitching. Sashiko is a traditional Japanese form of decorative stitching that originated in the Edo period. Initially developed as a means of repairing and reinforcing worn fabric, Sashiko involves intricate, repetitive patterns created using simple running stitches. The term "Sashiko" translates to "little stabs" or "little piercings," reflecting the method's straightforward technique.
