Sashiko - Patch Making

Sashiko is a type of traditional Japanese embroidery or stitching used for the decorative and/or functional reinforcement of cloth and clothing.

With local artist Elizabeth Hipps as your guide, you will learn about tools and usage for traditional sashiko, knotless techniques that allow double sided designs, how to prepare fabric for stitching, drawing a grid and patterns, stitching orders, and finishing techniques. You will have a jam packed two hours and leave with beautiful new skill!
