Sashiko Basics

In Japan, running stitches made by hand are used for quilting, mending, and decorative purposes. We will use a pre-printed traditional design sashiko panel to learn this running stitch embroidery style. A great technique that can be used in many applications, modern and traditional, to add texture and beauty to all your sewing and quilting projects.
A kit is included in the class fee and contains a sashiko sampler panel, thread, thimble and needle.
Please bring small scissors or thread snips.
