Sashiko is a decorative Japanese hand-stitching technique traditionally used to reinforce or mend clothing. You may have seen it as visible mending on jeans, or as neat patterns on Japanese kimonos and work jackets.
In this workshop you get a grounding in the embroidery technique and in building different types of patterns. You will go through the tools and materials traditionally used, as well as some alternatives. The approach is practical, working with rulers and templates, but you do not need to be a maths whizz or already able to embroider. Everyone is welcome.
