The ‘Stay at home’ order is now extended until Friday 30th July 2021 in Sydney. My sashiko class needs to be postponed again, maybe for a while. It is sad but I decided to offer to post the materials to our students so they can have a stimulating and enjoyable time at home during this lockdown. Are you interested in joining us? You are always welcome!

Yuzu is a citrus fruit that has been loved and used throughout Japan for hundreds of years, and its popularity has not waned. Its distinctive aroma is unique and not replaceable by any other citrus fruits – so I was so excited when I found them! In this article you can find some information about yuzu – where and when you can purchase them, the price, recipes for yuzu etc. Enjoy.

The ladies and I just finished ‘Tote bag project I’ after experiencing ten different traditional patterns since last December. We brought our finished bags and enjoyed our ‘show and tell’. This tote bag project is going to start again with new members from Tuesday 20th April and a DIY kit is also on it’s way.

My sashiko products (coasters and mats) being sold at Cowra Japanese Garden since this September are now sold out – I am pleased and appreciate people who valued my work and purchased them. Thank you very much.
“Sold out | sashiko product in Cowra Japanese Garden 2020.11.17” の続きを読むMy name is Takako.
I was born and grew up in Japan, in the foothills of Mt Fuji, and currently live in Sydney, Australia.
My husband and I operate a boutique travel service, both organising and leading small groups, and providing a self-guided tour service, to destinations around Australia, Japan and the world.
I have been interested in overseas travel since my early days, and having traveled widely around the world, I have developed a deeper interest in my own country Japan, especially Japanese crafts.
In this blog, I am going to write about Japan, Japanese craft and what I have seen and thought when travelling the world.
Between tours I organise Sashiko Classes, where you can experience the Japanese traditional stitching. I am pleased that my class can provide an opportunity to meet people and build friendships.
Please follow my Facebook / Instagram where I update new information.
