Beginner Sashiko Workshop

Sashiko is a traditional Japanese form of functional embroidery worked in running stitch on indigo-dyed fabric. Rooted in geometric precision, its patterns are built on a grid system where stitch length, spacing, and angle create interlocking motifs like hemp leaves, ocean waves, and tortoiseshell.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn to transfer and follow a grid pattern and the unique stitching method of Sashiko. Slow down and stitch something beautiful!

No prior stitching experience required.

$50 per person + All materials provided + take home kit including special needle, thimble thread and your project to continue working.

Best for ages 16 and up / Spaces limited
