Coincidentally enough, many of the Temari thread ball patterns that I’ve been featuring lately really echo the natural flora and fauna of Asia. This particular Temari ball we’re featuring today is no different. The temari above is titled Jasmine. This pattern as well as many of the other temari I will be sharing on the…
