Hishi Shippō Sashiko Pattern PDF — Diamond Seven Treasures Embroidery Template

A printable, true-scale PDF template for the Hishi Shippō "diamond seven treasures" design, with clear, step-by-step instructions so you go from print to stitched piece without guesswork.

Shippō names a set of treasures from Buddhist scripture, traditionally read as jewels set into cloth; here the family's circles straighten into hishi, diamonds, an old emblem of family and long life, linked corner to corner.

Stitched here in indigo with rose diagonals, or any high-contrast pair, on a panel or tote front where the diamond grid has room to repeat.
