Instructor: Robin TimpsonSkill Level: Beginner
This class is an introduction to the traditional Japanese stitching technique known as Sashiko. Students will learn the basic stitches and explore how to create the distinctive geometric patterns and designs that make this embroidery style so beautiful and functional. We will practice using stencils as well as learn how to freehand designs with the aid of a ruler. Threads, needles, and practice materials will be provided, and each student will complete a stitched patch to build confidence with the techniques. Participants are encouraged to bring an article of clothing or another fabric item they would like to embellish with their newly learned Sashiko stitching skills.
Please note *** A materials fee of $5 per student is due to the instructor at the start of the class.
