Sashiko-Inspired Visible Mending Hosted by Creative Coati

Turn your old threads into wearable art in this Sashiko stitching workshop, hosted by Caroline Coates from Creative Coati.
Sashiko is a traditional Japanese stitching technique used to reinforce worn fabric with repeated running stitches, often arranged in geometric patterns. Today it’s widely used for visible mending—repairing clothing while making the repair part of the design.
In this beginner-friendly workshop, with all materials provided, you’ll learn simple stitches and decorative techniques to customise your clothes using this approach, adding both design features and functionality so you can enjoy wearing them for longer.
You’ll leave with skills and the confidence to continue visible mending at home to repair clothes you no longer wear because they have holes, frayed areas, or signs of wear.
