All right, time for another patch of sashiko on these pants. You can sort-of tell I've been getting better at it over the years 😅

I finished the sashiko patch this morning... Because I wanted to wear these!

Now to see where the next tear develops 🙈

A full-length photo of a pair of dark, heavily-worn jeans repaired and embellished with numerous patches of white sashiko embroidery. The stitching covers areas on both pant legs, the crotch, and one coin pocket, featuring patterns like geometric stars, circles, diamonds, and mountain-like shapes. Close-up view of dark denim fabric being mended using white thread. The stitching features various sashiko-style patterns, including a square grid on the right, diamond and chevron patterns in the center, and a floral or geometric star pattern on the left. A length of white thread is still attached to the needle, lying over the stitching. Close-up of the outer seam of a dark denim pant leg. The area is heavily embroidered with white thread in sashiko patterns. The stitching is layered, showing a pattern that resembles a stack of mountains or chevrons below a cluster of starburst shapes, which is then topped by a delicate geometric border pattern.
