Asanoha Sashiko Medallion PDF — Hemp Leaf Stick & Stitch Template | 7", 5" & 4" Sizes | Water Soluble Printable | Instant Download
✦ Asanoha (Hemp Leaf): Traditional Japanese Sashiko Medallion ✦
A printable, true-scale hemp-leaf medallion you can stitch as a hoop centerpiece, a cushion medallion, or a framed piece. Print, transfer, and stitch the lines. A clean print-&-stitch template, ready for water-soluble stabilizer.
Asanoha (麻の葉, "hemp leaf") interlocks six-point stars into the pointed leaves of the hemp plant, one of Japan's oldest auspicious motifs and a wish for healthy, vigorous growth. All straight lines radiating from each star, so it's a meditative, rhythmic stitch.
WHAT YOU GET (instant download, ONE PDF):
• A 7" medallion, for a 7-8" hoop, a cushion, a tote/bag panel, or a table-runner centerpiece
• A 5" medallion, for a 5-6" hoop or a framed accent
• A 4" medallion, a smaller hoop or accent (pocket, patch, gift topper)
• A dashed cut-box + 1-inch scale square on every page so it's easy to position and print true-scale
• Prints true-scale on BOTH US Letter and A4, one file, just print at 100%
HOW IT WORKS: 1) Print at 100% (check the 1-inch square) → 2) On light fabric, trace at a window or lightbox; on dark fabric, print directly onto water-soluble stabilizer → 3) Stitch along the lines with even running stitches → 4) finish / rinse away the stabilizer.
Please note: this is a print-&-stitch TEMPLATE (the motif in three sizes), it does not include step-by-step lessons. Each star is a small hub where lines meet, so end your stitches just short of the center to keep it crisp.
