Information on the quilt classroom
"When I look into the classroom one day, I hear a lot of fun laughing. Everyone is cheering as they unfold their own quilts and the quilts that have finally been completed over time. Different fabrics and different patterns. There are bedspreads and small tapestries that show the individuality of the quilt. There is no curriculum in this classroom. For those who are new to quilts, we will prepare a kit only for the first time. If you have a small piece of work or a cloth you want to use, start from there. You will nod or open your eyes by the teacher's story and advice. It's really pleasant!! Whether you are new to quilting or have been tingling for years, this is a classroom that anyone can enjoy. If you are interested in quilts, you can use any cloth. Indigo-dyed cloth, American cotton, shirts that can't be thrown away, or memorable kimonos are fine. Tips on how to sew, how to hold needles, how to apply patterns, how to match colors, etc. There are many things you should know rather than not know. Those wisdoms will enrich and help you. "

先生の「パッチワークの基礎ノート」をバイブルに下手ながらも20年続けてきました。 キルト展のおりに「布と針の友」という言葉と共にサインを頂き、改めて見ると2001・11・16とありました。 今回、先生の動画を初めて拝見し、お元気な様子に嬉しくなりまた刺し子の世界も踏み出してみようかなと意欲も湧いています。ありがとうございます。

ありがとうございます。20年もの間続けてこられた事、本を大切にして頂いている事とても嬉しく思います。より多くの方にキルトを身近に感じ、やってみようと思って頂けるよう下手ながらも動画配信をしておりますがこのようなコメント頂き私もとても励みになります。

先生のお人柄は、とても謙虚であったかい方なのですね。お人柄まで垣間見えるお話ぶりもふくめ、いつも学ばせていただいてます。運針した布が素敵。ぜひ、真似させてください。同じような運針をしてみたいです。運針をするたびに、私は祖母が縁側で布団を打ち直していた時の、布団を縫う手元を思い出します。今までみた様々なデザインの刺し子模様より、一番感動しました。生活に近いところに刺し子はあるものですよね？

[@shizukokuroha9055]

温かいお言葉ありがとうございます。上手な人は山ほどいる事とは承知しておりますが、こんな下手を動画で流してでも上手であることより楽しんで縫うことにチャレンジする人が増えれば嬉しく思います。まさに刺し子は生活の一部と私も思いますので是非運針やってみてください。

I just caught up with your videos and I’m very grateful for your lesson. It’s a pleasure to see you.sew. Thanks you so much

[@shizukokuroha9055]

Thank you, it gives me a lot of encouragement. It is rare to show my sewing because of my poor skill, but I hope that my video encourages anyone who is not good at.
