Tropical Fishes: the new collection is here!
We are so excited to tell you that the new collection has finally arrived!
Take a colorful trip around the world with our new three charts inspired by the underwater life of the tropics.
In the Amazon River, a multicolored discus fish, embroidered in cross stitch, is swimming in the company of an angelfish…
… Diving into Lake Malawi, we meet three curious African cichlids that dart through the algae on a marbled blue fabric…
… Finally, from the tropical freshwaters of South America and Africa, we move to the Pacific Ocean, where a cute cross-stitched clownfish and a blackwork yellow tang greet us among the corals and anemones of the Great Barrier Reef.
We hope you love the Tropical Fishes Collection as much as we do! These designs will be a nice decorative touch to your home. Use hand-dyed or iridescent fabrics for a unique look, and share the picture of your finished projects on our Facebook page, or on Instagram using the hashtags #ajisaipress – #ajisaidesigns. We can’t wait to see your artworks!
Happy stitching!

CMYKwork. A four-colour interpretation of blackwork embroidery
CMYK. Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key Black.
In the four-colour printing, the entire spectrum of colours is reproduced with only these four colours, simply layering them one over the other.
Taking inspiration from this process, Valentina Sardu studied an interesting variation of her favourite embroidery technique… She calls it “CMYKwork”…
Blackwork embroidery is traditionally monochrome, but it lends itself to many creative variations!
Here you can see the first result of this study: Soap Bubbles, a new design achieved after several tries, exploring various combinations of primary and neutral colours.
This new design is now available on Book Depository*!
* Price on Book Depository may change depending on your delivery location.
