Sashiko is a striking hand-sewing technique that originated in ancient Japan. In Japanese, its name means “little stabs”—a reference to the plain running stitch that makes up sashiko's geometric, all-over patterns. ... Traditional sashiko combined decorative technique with mending and quilting.
This is such a flattering dress! I feel amazing in it! The fabric is nice and light to wear. The bust area is very fitted with no stretch room so consider this when trying to order the correct size. I am usually a size 10/12 with a 14B bust and I ordered the size 10 which fits me perfectly.
