Appreciation of Unforgettable Memories

March 8, 2021

Grateful

Appreciation of Unforgettable Memories. 忘れられない思い出への感謝.

Dear Sweetheart & Reader

How are you? I hope you can stay safe at home or at work. I hope you are healthy, and your family and beloved one too!!

For me this past one year from March 2020 and under COVID-19, has been so challenging for me.

I have felt extremely sad,

my body sometimes in pain.

And I missed my home in Japan, and Japan so much.

Our move from Japan to Germany

In 2018 my husband and I moved from Tokyo, Japan to Munich, Germany. It was such a culture-chock for both of us to settle in Germany. The first two months we stayed in center of Munich, and we got to know how life was in a big German city like Munich.

Luckily, we found a very nice home little bit outside of Munich city, by a loving family with two kids, and a dog. And we have stayed here ever since.

This year may be the year where we find a new home for our family, my husband and I and hopefully a loving cat. Yes, we are now looking for a kitten to our family. If it will be a female, I wish her to be named Luna. Do you have a pet?

Appreciation of Unforgettable Memories

However, all though I have felt so much sadness lately, I also feel so grateful for my loving life. I love life. I love my best ever husband, my best ever family, my two loving nephews, and my friends. Our home, all my forever lovely memories in Hong Kong, Japan, Paris….

And yesterday evening when I took a walk by myself, the weather was like the weather in Tokyo, when the cherry blossom trees were blooming. A little bit chili but not too cold. It felt so good. And I felt so grateful to look back at all my unforgettable memories when I lived in Tokyo.

If you have anything on your mind you wish to share with me, you are very welcome in my inbox☺️

Wishing you the best spring,

And talk to you soon.

With love,

Jeanette

New Japanese words from me to you. In Japanese language, family can be translated as 

💗家族 (kazoku)

家 • means house
事 • means tribe, family 

Depending on whether you are talking about your own family or talking to someone else’s family, the word changes a little 🤍

For example becomes かぞく(kazoku) ごかぞく(gokazoku) when you are taking about someone else’s family.

Xo,

Happy February Beautiful Souls!

💕 Sashiko Thread 💗

The sashiko thread is different from many embroidery threads.

🍒 It is made by twisting several thin cotton threads together, and has a looser twist, and
🍒 made from long and stable cotton meaning that it is very hard wearing and strong. 

The thickness of the Sashiko thread varies. 

Thick threads give a soft and rustic feel while thin threads give a delicate and beautiful finish. 

Vegetable-dyed treads are popular for their gentle colours. Find your favourite yarn by comparing them. 

In the picture you will find some of my favourite Sashiko threads.

To the most left: @sashikostory color #013 - thick and lovely thread
In the middle: @hobbyra_hobbyre color #116 - medium thick, the one I use the most.
To the right side: @ajisaidrop thin and delicate.

With sashiko love,
Jeanette

Dear beautiful 🫶🏻

You might be curious about what Sashiko is.

Sashiko is a Japanese hand sewing technique that was developed in Japan a few centuries ago or as beautifully expressed by Keiko & Atsushi Futatsuya:

"Sashiko is a process of repairing the fabric to repair, strengthen and warm the clothes that the family member will wear"

Sashiko was originally a job for women to repair men's clothing over the winter. Both women and men worked as farmers in the summer. But in winter, men worked in the forest and women repaired the fabric. This practice still exists in some parts of Japan.

💫 My story with Sashiko
I discovered Sashiko one day when I walked into a small hobby shop in our neighborhood in Tokyo. Many Japanese women bought small pieces of white fabrics with printed patterns and also colorful threads. I wondered what they were going to do?

They all had to make small hand-sewn handkerchiefs. I found it fascinating and wanted to try it myself.

After several years of creating small pieces of hand-stitched fabrics using the Japanese needlework technique, I want to share my passion with the world. Because

It is pure bliss. Relaxing. And funny.

Do you also want to try? You can see more about Sashiko in my link in my profile.

Thank you for stopping by 🤎
