Programming SpaceLearn the basics of sashiko embroidery, and use the running stitch to create geometric designs on a canvas zipper pouch. Registration is recommended. Walk-ins are welcome for any remaining space.
Sashiko is a traditional Japanese embroidery technique that uses a simple running stitch to create intricate, geometric patterns. It is often used to decorate, mend, and reinforce fabric. We'll map out our designs on a grid, and then stitch them onto a canvas zipper pouch. Supplies will be provided. Beginners welcome.
Registered spots will be held until 4:40pm, then released to those waiting in person.
