I am from Tsugaru in Aomori Prefecture, Japan — the birthplace of Kogin embroidery. Growing up surrounded by Aomori’s rich traditional arts and crafts, I began learning Kogin as a child and have continued to develop my skills and knowledge for more than 25 years.
Kogin embroidery is known for its distinctive geometric patterns and unique texture. It is beautiful, charming, warm, stylish, and surprisingly modern, making it a craft that continues to inspire people across generations.
Sashiko originated in the Tohoku region of Japan. I began learning Sashiko and Boro stitching in high school and immediately fell in love with them. Since then, I have enjoyed creating many handmade items, including pouches, bags, and blankets, while continuing to explore the creativity and beauty of these traditional Japanese stitching techniques. Over the years, I have also started teaching Sashiko, sharing my knowledge and passion with others and helping them discover the joy of stitching by hand.
Unlike many forms of embroidery that follow strict patterns, Sashiko allows for freedom and creativity. This flexibility is one of the reasons I believe Sashiko has spread far beyond Japan and become loved by people all over the world.
Over the years, I have had the pleasure of introducing this beautiful Japanese needlework tradition to many people overseas. While countless new embroidery styles and patterns exist today, authentic Kogin and Sashiko techniques are still cherished and practiced by needlework enthusiasts throughout Japan.
I love sharing the history, techniques, and joy of Kogin, and I look forward to connecting with fellow needlework lovers and helping more people discover this wonderful tradition.
