Modern Boro Runner Pattern

 Modern Boro is an interpretation of the Traditional Japanese Boro.

It is patched and stitched to completely cover a base fabric (Sarashi) whereas

Traditional Japanese Boro was fabric that was patched and stitched only 

where it had become worn. Modern Boro is more of an art form than a necessity.



This runner is 1.30 metres long and 35cm wide.

Ecru Sashiko thread - 20m $5.50 or 100m $20.00

Sashiko Threads


I now have a much larger range of sashiko threads. 
This means I now have two weights - the thicker that I have always had 
by Olympus and some finer ones. 
The range of colours has increased a lot with these new brands.


These are finer 40m hanks $5.60 each


These are Olympus thicker 20m $5.60



These threads on card are finer 40m $5.60

These on a reel are thicker 30m $9.10



You can order by quoting hank, reel or card and eg: third from left, 
the colour is also helpful.

PICE threads

These wonderful Japanese threads are a fine Polyester.

They come on the cutest wooden spools in traditional Japanese murky colours.

I use them for English Paper Piecing as they are strong and fine and won't 
get worn down by your card edges.

I also use them for hand applique - once again because they are fine.



There is 200 metres on each reel.

$8.00 per reel.
