Join us in learning a traditional Japanese needlework technique that combines beauty and functionality. Originally developed as a method of mending and reinforcing fabric, sashiko has evolved into a celebrated decorative art form. In this hands-on course, you'll learn the foundational stitching techniques, explore traditional patterns, and create your own sashiko designs. You'll gain insights into the cultural significance of sashiko and its meditative, rhythmic stitching process. Whether you're interested in preserving a piece of fabric, embellishing clothing, or creating artful textiles, this class is perfect for beginners and those looking to expand their crafting skills.
