Sashiko is a Japanese Mending and Embroidery practice. A simple running stitch creates bold, geometric patterns on textiles. With focus on exploring decorative aspects of the craft, workshop participants will learn how use Sashiko’s “small stabs” to stitch designs onto small squares to create a pair of coasters. Choose from a variety of traditional Sashiko patterns; horizontal rows, tiny plus signs, linked steps, star stitch, or woven tortoise.
All tools and materials are provided to complete two Sashiko embroidered coasters: one to finish in class and one to complete at home!
Light refreshments will be served. Space limited to 12 participants.
In an effort to reduce no-shows, a limited amount of pay-what-you-can tickets will be released at 9 AM on Friday, June 14.
