Our first video!

We did it! Thomas and I cleared off the cutting table and put together a simple starting project for learning sashiko. Okay, so all I did was demonstrate how to backstitch and use a thimble, but that’s exactly what I teach my customers over and over at every show so I figured there might be an audience for learning those skills.

We shot it on my iPhone, edited it on my computer, then uploaded it to YouTube and added subtitles. We’re looking at getting a better camera for future videos, so bear with us as we go through the learning process and get things up to speed.

If you have suggestions for improvement or an idea you’d like me to tackle, let me know!

    I watched the video. Thanks! I didn’t know (or maybe didn’t remember) the back stitch trick. Looking forward to the next video.

    I love the video! I have never used a palm thimble before. It looks so handy. Can’t wait to try it.

    Loved the video, now I can get started – was a bit confused on the thimble but now got it!
