Discover the beautiful Japanese embroidery technique kogin and how to use it to create stunning stitched and quilted projects. 

Kogin is a counted embroidery technique traditionally used for reinforcing fabrics and decorative darning. Japanese embroidery expert, Susan Briscoe, has compiled a collection of over 230 pattern charts and 12 accompanying projects to create The Ultimate Kogin Collection, following on from her previous bestselling title The Ultimate Sashiko Sourcebook.

  • Create Japanese-inspired homewares with embroidered linens
  • Choose individual motifs for small projects like little coin purses
  • Use your stitch samples to create handmade greetings cards
