Based on the concept of filling in the gaps of loosely woven fabric, this Japanese mending and beautifying technique was historically a survival necessity and an act of defiance against the laws of an oppressive governing body that forbade the wearing of textiles made from warmer materials. Detailed photography and step-by-step visual instructions guide readers to create stunning projects using Kogin-zashi stitching. Alongside a robust stitch library, readers will find 10 projects to showcase their work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnwind from the stress of everyday life with the slow, meditative process of forming one stitch at a time that is sashiko\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaster the art of Kogin embroidery, a type of sashiko stitching perfect for embellishing everything from wearables to everyday objects \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearn from prolific teachers Shannon and Jason who have been teaching for 20 years in local and national venues\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jason Bowlsby, Shannon Leigh Roudhan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1644031876\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781644031872\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e C\u0026amp;T Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/10\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.60h x 8.20w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2023 pg. 54","brand":"Jason Bowlsby","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44073105228031,"sku":"9781644031872","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_faffa22a-c235-46eb-b7e9-b3859a5bdd0b.jpg?v=1685445844","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/contemporary-kogin-zashi-jason-bowlsby-9781644031872","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
