TUTORIAL Sashiko-Pattern-Library

I recently made a Sashiko pattern library that shows animations instead of stitching diagrams. I thought it might help some peope because it makes this technique more accessible.

Everyone can participate by creating new patterns in the sandbox. These I will add to the main gallery over time. I recommend the remix feature in the existing patterns to get a hang of how the editor works.

This library will be free and open source forever.

If you wish for new features or find bugs, please let me know here. I appreciate people helping me to add patterns, this way the library will grow quicker. Let me know what you think :-)

Thank you so much for this! This is perfect for a beginner like me. I'm a little intimidated by the more complex patterns and the illustrations are so helpful.
