LIKE NEW CONDITION: in good to excellent like new pre owned used condition. It looks brand new to me, except for the page where someone had their address label and it has since been removed and shows paper residue. See photo 4. Clean, no smells. Paperback with 144 pages with lots of photos to get inspired. Lark Books, 1999. Easy and elegant designs for decorative machine embroidery. St Patrick's Day & Easter

OTHER DETAILS: This book has a lot of sashiko information, like the history of sashiko, SECRETS of Successful Machine Stitching, like how to make iron on transfer patterns in different colors, 25 projects which bypass the more time consuming process of stitching by hand and best of all, 52 pages of sashiko pattern dictionary with 4 patterns per page. More than 100 stitch patterns with sashiko designs ranging from geometric to elaborate florals. ZOOM in and see details! Questions welcome.

SIZE: see photos with rulers on ZOOM. Questions welcome. PS. More photos of the projects and the 200+ expansive sashiko pattern dictionary are now posted my Hoarder Rehab and The Destiny of Things Blog here: https://hoarderrehab.blogspot.com/2019/03/more-photos-info-on-sashiko-easy.html

HOARDER HISTORY: Several times a year for special celebrations or "just because" my mom gives me her quilt books, magazines and best of all her scraps of boro, kuba cloth, other quilting scraps and this time, it was wool, cotton, and silk samples for men's clothing from Scotland! And I think all the bottoms of my grandfather's pants that she hemmed when my grandmother no longer could. I think I have several or at least off the top of my head, two Sashiko books to list. The other one is Sashiko and Beyond by Saikoh Takano.
