Kogin sashimi kit goldfish nebuta
◆Koginkyou Nebuta Kogin Embroidery Kit : Due to a change in the fabric lot, new colors are now available for the Goldfish Nebuta Kit currently on sale. The design remains the same.
The materials, both Kogin cloth and Kogin thread, are from Koginbank. In addition, while the frames were previously only available as Olympus fashion hoops, you can now also choose Clover embroidery frames. The sizes and atmospheres are different, so please enjoy the one that suits your taste.
The level of difficulty is 2. The design remains the same, but the thread will change from Handicraft Fan to Koginbank, so the stitching experience will change. Please continue to enjoy the rhythm of Kogin.
◆Materials Introduction
koginbank original kogin cloth (cotton cloth)
The fabric remains as soft and easy to stitch as ever. The beige color has changed due to a change in production lot. The old lot resembles whipped cream (almost white), while the new lot resembles fresh cream (slightly yellowish white) .
Koginbank's fabric is actually an amazing fabric that keeps Olympus Kogin threads from coming apart. (Olympus Kogin threads are a style that requires you to pull out the required number of threads, so I feel that it is a thread that requires skill if you want to maintain an enclosed state.) The feeling when stitching is that the weaving thread flexibly narrows or expands the size of the tunnel according to the thread. It's interesting, so if you have the materials on hand, please give it a try.

This Kogin thread is made of four strands of cotton No. 8 thread, and it is firm, has a strong presence, and gives it height. It is a Kogin thread that is full of attention to detail and has an interesting story from the beginning to the end. I recommend that you enjoy the depth of the thread in koginbank's web magazine .
The twist may come undone when you pass it through the kogin needle, but since the thread is quite tightly twisted and is used with koginbank's fabric, which is less likely to cause stress to the thread, I think you will be able to finish stitching with the thread remaining neat.
It also goes very well with Congress, which is a weaving thread that is difficult to move. It's a different kind of compatibility to the combination of koginbank cloth and Olympus Kogin thread, where Congress firmly holds the size of the fabric tunnel and the cored koginbank Kogin thread passes through it with confidence. If you have the materials, please try this too. I always find the encounter between materials really interesting and exciting.

◆ Behind the Scenes
I have all the colors of koginbank's kogin thread, but I had no confidence at all in using the four-strand kogin thread, so I never sewed with it, and it wasn't included in the kit. However, I found that the thread was stronger than I had imagined, didn't fall apart, and was easy to sew with.
Also, because it is a carefully selected thread, I discovered that the thread alone is tall and has shadows, which is an interesting effect, and I thought it was interesting to share it with everyone, so I made a kit using koginbank's thread.
