Sashiko, "little stabs", is a Japanese traditional form of decorative reinforcement. This museum is dedicated to modern sashiko artist Akie Sakamoto. The museum itself is very valuable to see. An old house build over 200 years ago was moved to location and remodeled.

Kubota Itchiku Museum Yuzawaya Yuzawaya is a large chain craft store located in all over Japan. With convenient locations, reasonable prices, and item variations, it is very popular among craft lovers.

Kubota Itchiku was a Japanese textile artist who devoted his life in recreating Tsujigahana, a fabric dyeing technique from 15th century. Since that technique was forgotten, he revived the lost art and modernized it at the age of 60. Most of his beautifu crafted kimonos are exhibited in the museum overlooking a stunning Japanese garden.
