Inspired
by sashiko embroidery, a Japanese art form, I decided to make some DIY Embroidered Jar and Bottle Covers.
And while my embroidery technique was lacking the precision of

This
boro sashiko quilting technique is much like Kantha, a centuries - old art tradition thought to have originated with the Buddha and his followers, but attributed to Odisha and West Bengal of India, and Bangladesh.

Your food photography is always wonderful, but this time I'm admiring
the sashiko cloth underneath the skillet.
So here's the deal: while inspired by
sashiko embroidery, mine is technically not sashiko for a few reasons:
I could have used a cool fabric or even created an iron - on transfer to embellish them with, but then I looked on my Pinterest «sewing / knitting» folder and saw one of
my sashiko pins and thought... that could be cool!
