季節を楽しむこぎん刺しキット

Koginzashi kit to enjoy the season

As mentioned in the introduction to the Kogin Kit , Satonobo's Kogin embroidery kit comes in two courses: a skill-up kit and a kit for enjoying the seasons. Today, we will introduce the overview of the kit for enjoying the seasons .

◆The main purpose is to have fun

The seasonal enjoyment kit is designed to be enjoyable even for those who have never picked up a Kogin needle . Utilizing the rhythm of traditional Kogin patterns, the kit utilizes the abilities of Kogin's modoko (basic patterns) by placing traditional patterns next to each other or connecting them in slightly more interesting ways. I am always delighted to receive messages like, "It was my first time doing Kogin, but I managed to complete it!"
We are working on creating instructions for beginners, explaining the stitching order and how to finish the thread, as if we were holding a workshop on the kit .

◆Perfect as a gift Kogin embroidery kits for enjoying the seasons are made with love and many people give them as gifts to loved ones . Looking back, the very first kit, Hinamatsuri Kogin (no longer on sale), was also a gift , inspired by a request from someone who had helped me out during my student days to make one for their first Doll's Festival.
I'm currently making a carp streamer for a friend, and just because it's a gift makes the time I spend choosing the thread that much more exciting, and I get excited wondering what kind of reaction my friend will have, so I really feel like I'm enjoying the time I spend making it .
Most of the designs are simple, so you won't have to worry about what's going on. If you have the opportunity, try making one as a gift and experience the special feeling of happiness .

(These pieces were designed as Christmas or Valentine's Day gifts, but one customer made one as a gift for her grandchild's first Christmas .)

◆What we want to tell you : As with all kits, Satonobo himself checks the finished product as Kogin embroidery art, and only makes kits that he is satisfied with, including the silhouette of the pattern and the texture of the material .
I sell items that I have embroidered myself , so please feel free to let me know if you have any problems or questions. I still vividly remember receiving a message from someone saying, "I do Kogin embroidery by myself, so there are things I don't understand. What do you do in situations like this?" and replying with such joy. Please rest assured, and let's have fun together.

(This goldfish nebuta kit was featured in the July 2023 issue of Aomori Prefecture's To-o Nippo newspaper . Many people make these as souvenirs to take home or as gifts for family members who cannot return home .)

◆ What you can experience
As the design uses traditional Kogin patterns, I think that skill development will come as a result. More than that, I hope that you will enjoy the purity that lies at the beginning of Kogin embroidery and the fun of the patterns, realizing that Kogin patterns can be done in this way, and that they can change in this way depending on the color scheme.
