Sashiko Sampler Studio
Service Description
**Early Access registration for newsletter subscribers begins 7/27 **General registration begins 7/29 Slow down with the meditative stitching of Sashiko Japanese Embroidery to create a sampler of bold, beautiful patterns. With focus on the decorative aspects of the craft, workshop participants will learn how to draw simple grids and geometric patterns, and use Sashiko’s "small stabs" to hand stitch three designs onto their sustainably sourced linen or denim cloth. All skill levels are welcome whether you’ve never tried Sashiko before or you’ve taken a class or two. Everyone will work at their own pace and choose patterns to suit their comfort level and design aesthetic. Select from a variety of popular and traditional Sashiko patterns. First timers choose from: seven treasures, blue ocean waves, squares and diamonds, linked steps, tiny plus sign, or star stitch. For those with previous Sashiko experience, choose from woven tortoise, flower stitch, persimmon blossom, mountain form, triangle scales, or wild grasses. All tools and materials will be provided. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First timer class kit $20 includes; linen, pair of Olympus Sashiko needles, one skein of Sashiko thread, ruler, fabric pen, needle threader, pattern instruction guide, resource list.
