The Juji-Hanazashi design incorporates diagonal stitches to connect the vertical and horizontal stitches.
The tortoiseshell pattern of Kikkō–Hanazashi becomes apparent as zig zag stitches are interwoven.
Please note that marking the ¼” (0.5 cm) grid onto the fabric is very important to create accurate stitches.

Creative Designs for Hitomezashi
Creative Hitomezashi Brooches
Hitomezashi is perfect on small surfaces, like these brooches
made from covered buttons. We used three designs here: Ko-
mezashi, which is also on the tissue case, Juji-Hanazashi and
diagonally stitched Hanazashi. Layer quilt batting beneath the
fabric before assembling the button to make it nice and fluffy.

SASHIKO BASICS
Thread Used for Sashiko
Olympus Sashiko Thread
Matte, cotton thread is typically used for sashiko. For this book, all projects are sewn
with Olympus brand sashiko thread. The thread is used as a single strand, which is
a little different from other embroidery floss that can be divided into smaller bundles
of strands. One skein is approximately 22 yards (20 m), and 29 colors are available.
ACTUAL SIZE
Olympus Sashiko Thread (Mix)
Variegated colors in a single strand can be
enjoyed with this type of sashiko thread.
100% cotton. Approximately 20m per skein.
