Sashiko: A Pillow Case

I was gone on a long trip and decided to bring this sashiko piece with me.  It was easy to do in the car and I was amazed by how much I got done. 
Pamela, I have never heard of the book that you mentioned.  One that I borrowed from the library is called Shashiko: Easy and Elegant Designs for Decorative Machine Embroidery by Mary Parker.
It lists the names of the different designs which I find interesting. I think this one is called Key Pattern.
I am ready to get back to Elizabeth and Ghost Dancer.

Another Sashiko

This one is called tortoise shell.  I find sashiko very relaxing.  I may have to dig out one of the kits that is in my basement and stitch it as my carry along project.  For some reason none of my (many) Mill Hill Kits are calling to me...

Sashiko: Pine Bark

I am teaching sashiko at my local library. This is supposed to be a coaster.  I think I will need some help from my seamstress librarian friends...
