I'm so glad that you posted a video tonight. I had a busy day in my sewing room and now I get to sit and watch you work. I hope you have a wonderful week ahead. Thank you for sharing this video!
Love this. I could even see this as a stand alone applique to be added on a piece. Do circle stitches on just the denim then applique this design on a quilt or pillow. Thanks for the idea!
You’re using an opaque gel pen, and you mention that you can wipe the ink off when you finish. Given the amount of handling, the lines remain very well. I have been trying sashiko and don’t like the chalk that fades so easily. Can you tell us more about using that pen, please?
I've used a Sakura gel pen and the majority of the ink comes off with a damp cloth but it's not perfect. I mainly used it to show up well under camera but if you used a pen that was a slightly lighter shade than the fabric you were working on I would think it would barely been seen after a wipe. Please test it first though before you spend hours stitching. I would hate for you to go through all that painstaking sewing only to find out the ink was indelible 😒 c x
Thank you for this wonderful idea. Just love it.

Yes, that would look great, you could do several in different sizes and overlap them, c x
Thank you!
No problem. I love the look of sashiko but have never found the time (or patience) to give it a proper go! c x

Great idea :)

Why aren't you using a circular attachment? They make perfect circles w decorative stitches.
GC Durnin Do you have a link to a circular attachment?
Even better to make REALLY BIG CIRCLES. And it's free from stuff you have around the house. czcams.com/video/w-MCCIlwg-0/video.html
I don't have one 🤣 c x
