Learn It! Sashiko Stitching

Enjoy the Japanese art of Sashiko, or “little stabs” stitching!  

In this class, you will learn the basics of Sashiko stitching. Sashiko means little stabs and is a type of traditional Japanese embroidery used for the decorative and functional reinforcement of cloth and clothing. While learning the basics, you will practice on a small sampler pattern that can be turned into a coaster, patch, pincushion, or other piece at a later date! 
 
After the demonstration, you can stay to work on your sampler and interact with others in the class. Ready to take your project to the next level? Schedule a one-on-one session with Exchange staff to get your authorization to use the sewing machines.
