Quick trip to Seattle to see gardens and textiles. On my own. I have an appointment at the Seattle Asian Art Museum where the curator will show me their Sashiko in the collection. This is happening tomorrow. After arriving I walked down from my hotel to Ancient Grounds, a Japanese Kimono Store. It was fabulous collection of garments. Here’s a photo of a Sashiko Japanese furoshiki, a wrapping cloth for gifts, stitched by hand.
